✦ Synopsis


A chemoenzymatic route to 6-deoxy (D-fructose 5b and L-sochose 5a) is described.This method is based on conversion of racemic 2.3-dihydroxybutyraldehyde to 5a and Sb catalyzed by spinach leaves Transketolase. Only the (R,R) and (R,S) isomers of 2,3-dihydroxybutymkiehyde react, yielding 6-deoxy-D-fmctose aad Ci-deoxy-Gsorbose.

Deoxysugars have recently been found to play an important role not only in cell adhesion processes such as the inflammatory response in infections, but also in the reperfusion tissue injuries that often occur after organ transplantst. It has recently been demonstrated that deoxysugars are located on various cancer cells suggesting that they play an important role in the metastasis of human cancer% While naturally-occurring 6deoxyaldoses, i.e. 6-deoxyglucose (quinovose), 6deoxygalactose (fucose) and 6deoxymannose (rhamnose) are abundant, 6-deoxyhexuloses and especially 6-deoxy-D-fructose and 6deoxy-L-sorbose ate much scarcer.

In addition, it has been shown that 6-deoxy-L-sorbose and 6-deoxy-D-fructose can serve as precursors of a
