Synthesis of 2,4-Di-O-methyl-L-erythrose

2, 4-Di-O-methyl-L-erythrose is thought to occur in the hydrolysis and periodate oxidation products of polysaccharides. This sugar has now been synthesized from methyl-L-arabofuranoside by tosylation, methylation, detosylation and periodate oxidation. The free sugar was obtained as a sirup and was characterized by the preparation of a crystalline phenylhydrazone and a crystalline p nitrobenzoate. / Science, Faculty of / Chemistry, Department of / Graduate
