β¦ Synopsis
3-O-Benzyl-5-deoxy-1,2-O-isopropylidene-a-D-xylo-hexadialdo-1,4-furanose (2) upon treatment with Lirv(TMS)2 at -500 furnished the e&ate which reacted with methyl 2,3,4-tri-Obenzyl-a-D-glucopyranoside-6-ulose (5) to afford two eythro aldols 3 and 4 in 6:l ratio and 43% yield. 5R;6R Confguration was assigned to the main aldol on the basis of the IH-n.m.r. spectra of appropriate derivatives of 3.

Strictly speaking, these compounds are C,, sugar derivatives but, because of their resemblance to disaccharides and for easier comprehension. they are named as x-deoxy-x-(C-glycosyI)glycose derivatives.
New convenient and stereoselective route to linear isoprenoids including the construction of Z-trisubstituted double bond is elaborated based on directed aldol condensation. We have previously reported' that the directed aldol condensation2 of dlitbated aldimines J\_ with aldehydes 1 is highly ster
