    Abstract

    L-ldo cyanohydrln 3 was prepared from dlacetone-D-glucose In four steps and 76% overall yield and 90% de via cyanohydrin reaction of aldehyde 2. This process can be scaled to provide >1 mol of pure L-Ido cyanohydrin 3. Cyanohydrin 3 was elaborated to 1,2-Isopropylldineprotected L-ldo nitrile (8), lduronic amide 9, and known carboxy ester 10. Coupling of 8 and 9 with glucosamine donors leads to new types (6-cyano and 6-carboxamlde) of heparin-related disaccharides. © 2009 American Chemical Society.
