On the basis of these results, Wolfrom and coworkers later proposed a route for the transformation of D-glucose to 5-(hydroxymethyl)-2-furalde-hyde through the 3-deoxy-D-er /f ro-hexosulose (52) and the 3,4-dideoxy-D-g ii/cero-hexosulose-3-ene (69B) (see also, Newth s review on the formation of furan compounds from hexoses).
