Glucitol dithioacetal

The mevalonic acid model 2 has been synthesized from diacetone 3-deoxy-D-glucose (1) in many steps, as outlined in Scheme 1, and its analogue 3 with an additional hydroxyl group was made available by a similar reaction sequence starting from 2,4-O-benzylidene-D-glucitoL The preparation and liquid crystalline properties of dithioacetals 4, obtained from D-galactuionic acid n-alkylamides by treatment with n-alkyl thiols in the presence of trimethylsilyl chloride have been described. ...

A review of thio-sugars has discussed the conformations of various dialkyl dithioacetals and the use of thio-sugars in the synthesis of deoxynucleosides. 1,6-Thioanhydro-D-glucitol (182) has been synthesized from 2,4-O-benzylidene-l,6-di-0-toluene-/ -sulphonyl-D-glucitol by the route shown in Scheme 44. ... 

A new, three-step synthesis of 1-deoxy-D-fructose (27% overall yield) is based on reductive desulphurization of 2-amino-2-deoxy-D-glucose diethyl dithioacetal to give 2-amino-l,2-dideoxy-D-glucitol, which was oxidatively deaminated using...
