6R-, and 6S, -6C-methylglucose from D-glucuronolactone: Efficient synthesis of a seven carbon fucose analogue: Inhibition of some enzymes of primary metabolism

Syntheses of the two epimeric 6C-methylglucoses from D-glucuronolactone rely on a non-stereoselective reduction of an intermediate lactol. A highly stereoselective reduction of a silylated lactol, which is accompanied by a silyl migration, gives easy access to 6S-6C-methylglucose - a seven carbon fu...
