Mannuronolactone acetonide: easy access to C-3 OH and C-5 OH of mannose
The synthesis of D-mannuronolactone acetonide 1 is described from alginic acid and provides an efficient route for the manipulation at C-5 of mannose. Reduction gives a new acetonide of mannose, 1,2-O-isopropylidene-β-D-mannofuranose which, on further acetonation, gives 1,2:5,6-di-O-isopropylidene-β...
