## Abstract The peracetylated methyl ester 1 of N‐acetylneuraminic acid was transformed into the oxazoline derivative 2, which was hydrogenated with Pd/C/H~2~ to give the 4‐deoxy‐Neu5Ac2en derivative 3. Acid cleavage of the oxazoline 2 by trifluoroacetic acid (THF) gave the 4‐epi‐Neu5Ac2en derivati

Abstract
2‐Deoxy‐2‐H~eq~‐N‐acetylneuraminic acid (1a) has been shown to be a versatile mimic for sialosyl 2‐α‐glycosides to study the hemagglutinin‐sialic acid interaction. Starting with a 4‐oxo derivative of 2‐deoxy‐2‐H~eq~‐sialic acid, we obtained the 4‐C‐methyl~ax~ and 4‐C‐methyl~eq~ derivatives 4 and 5 as a separable mixture. The derivative 4 was formed as a single product by using tributoxymethylzirconium. The 4‐C‐methylene derivative 10 was formed by treatment of the ketone with Cp~2~ZrCl~2~/Zn/CH~2~I~2~. Catalytic hydrogenation of the exo‐methylene compound 10 yielded the two 4‐deoxy‐4‐C‐methyl diastereomers 13 and 14. All above‐mentioned derivatives could be transformed into the unprotected 4‐branched 2‐deoxy‐2‐H~eq~‐sialic acids 7, 9, 12, 16, and 18. 2‐Deoxy‐2H~eq~‐4‐oxosialic acid (21) was synthesized by a different pathway.
