Idopyranose 5-thio

Notiz iiber l,6-Anhydro-2-S-benzyl-2-thio-/3-l>idopyranose, by L. Vegh and E. Hardegger, Helv. Chim. Acta, 56 (1973) 1961-1962. 

Adley and Owen [3] described the synthesis of 5-thio-L-idopyranose 12 by the ring opening of 5,6-dideoxy-5,6-epithio-l,2-0-isopropyhdene-a-L-idofuranose 13, with potassium acetate in a mixture of glacial acetic acid and acetic anhydride and subsequent deprotection. 5-Thio-D-glucopyranose 10 was first synthesized by Feather and Whistler [8]. 

Penta-Ac 1,2,3,4,6-Penta-0-acetyl-5-deoxy-5-thio-L-idopyranose C,sH220,oS 406.41 Mp 90-92°. Mg +41 (c, 2.0 in CHCI3).
