A variety of vinyl- or alkynyl-substituted polyhydroxylated cyclopentanes and cyclobutanes are prepared in enantiomerically pure form from appropriate carbohydrate precursors, in a direct one-step ring-contraction procedure promoted by SmI2 and catalytic Pd(0). This reaction is thought to proceed through intermediate ring-opened allyl- or allenylsamarium complexes that undergo ring-closure by intramolecular carbonyl addition. A predominant trans relationship is found between vinyl (or alkynyl) and hydroxyl groups at the two newly created stereogenic centers, with good to excellent levels of stereoselectivity being observed in the formation of homopropargyl cyclopentanol products. Under appropriate conditions, preparatively useful yields are realized of stereoisomers not directly available using alternative methodology.

1,5-Anhydro-D-galactitol, easily available from D-galactose, was selectively protected in positions 2, 3 and 4 and converted into 5-O-acetyl-2,6-anhydro-3-deoxy-L-threo-hex-2-enonic acid methyl ester, which, on reaction with MCPBA in acetic acid gave 2,5-di-O-acetyl-α-L-lyxo-hex-2-ulopyranosonic acid methyl ester. Reaction of the latter with sodium methoxide produced sodium L-ascorbate in high yield. Several side-reactions and the conformations of some of the intermediates are also discussed.

Reaction of several α- and β-galactopyranosides with 2,2-dimethoxypropane produced up to five types of mono-, bis-, and tris(isopropylidene)acetals, among which the 3,4-O-isopropylidene-6-O-(2-methoxyisopropyl) derivatives can be obtained in high yield an
