Abstract

Addition of [(phenyldimethylsilyl)methyl]magnesium chloride (1d) to 1,2:3,4‐di‐O‐iso‐propylidene‐α‐D‐galacto‐hexodialdo‐1,5‐pyranose, and further processing of the resulting anti‐α‐hydroxy‐silane adduct by a well‐established sequence of reactions, gives a precursor to destomic acid 2. Similarly, addition of the Grignard reagent 1d to 3‐O‐benzyl‐1,2‐O‐isopropylidene‐α‐D‐xylo‐pentodialdo‐1,4‐furanose proceeds with a high degree of stereoselectivity to give, after further elaboration of the syn‐α‐hydroxy‐silane adduct, the antibiotic 1‐deoxynojirimycin.
