The synthesis of 1-acetamido-2,6-anhydro-1,7-deoxy-L-glycero-L-galactitol (N-[β-L-fucopyranosylomethyl]-acetamide) and related derivatives

One important goal of this thesis is the hydrogenation of the glycosyl cyanide, which has never been mentioned by any of the groups who have done work in this area, except for B. Coxon and G. Fletcher, who in 1964, reduced a tetra-O-acetyl-β-D-galactopyranosyl cyanide with lithium aluminum hydride. We were hoping to obtain, by reduction with hydrogen on Pd/C, an aminomethyl C-glycoside. It is believed that these aminomethyl C-glycosides are of potential biological importance especially in the area of AIDS and HIV therapy.
