SOME ASPECTS OF THE ISOPROPYLIDENATION OF D-GLUCITOL UNDER NEUTRAL CONDITIONS

Isopropylidenation of D-glucitol (1) under neutral conditions, by treatment with 2,2-dimethoxypropane in 1,2-dimethoxyethane, has been studied.An improved procedure for the isolation of 1,2:5,6-di-O-isopropylidene-D-glucitol, the main equilibrium product, by direct crystallisation or via the 3,4-dibenzoate is described.Some aspects of the reaction are discussed and compared with results obtained previously from the isopropylidenation of 1 in the presence of zinc chloride.
