High-yielding protocols are described to convert d-glucose-via hydroxylaminolysis of its hydroxyglucal esters, followed by deoximination and β-elimination of acid-into dihydropyranone building blocks with a single stereogenic center. Their versatility as enantiopure six-carbon scaffolds is highlighted by excellent regio- and stereocontrol in a variety of addition reactions and by their straightforward use as building blocks for the concise syntheses of the soft-coral constituents bissetone and palythazine in enantiopure form, thereby proving their absolute configuration. Moreover, several procedures are detailed to convert hydroxyglucal esters into 1,5-anhydro-d-fructose, their parent sugar, the direct low-temperature de-O-acylation being the most suitable for preparative purposes, as long as its access via enzymatic degradation of starch is not implemented on an appreciable scale.

An effective procedure for selectively cleaving enol esters in the presence of normal ester functions has been developed, involving hydroxylaminolysis to the oxime of the parent ketone.
