摘要

D-Arabinose and D-glucose are transformed into the identical vinyl furanoside, whose role is to serve as the precursor to enantiopure cyclooctadienone 6. The key steps of this relay involve a zirconocene-promoted ring contraction and [3,3] sigmatropic rearrangement of an enynol. Subsequently defined are convenient synthetic routes to several cyclooctane-1,2,3-triols, 1,2,3,4,5-pentaols, and structurally related glycomimetics.
