AN ENTRY TO CHIRAL CYCLOHEXENES FROM CARBOHYDRATES - A SHORT, EFFICIENT, AND ENANTIOSPECIFIC SYNTHESIS OF (-)-SHIKIMIC ACID FROM D-MANNOSE
A short, efficient, and enantiospecific synthesis of (3R,4S,5R)-shikimic acid from benzyl 2,3-O-isopropylidene-α-D-lyxofuranoside (readily available from D-mannose) is described.
