Abstract

5-O-(t-Butyldimethylsilyl)-3-deoxy-3-C-hydroxymethyl-1,2-O-isopropylidene-3-(methoxycarbonylamino)-α-d-xylofuranose IV has been proved to be an appropriate building block in the stereoselective synthesis of methyl (4S)-4-[(1′R)-1′-acetoxy-4′-oxobutyl]-3-benzyl-2-oxooxazolidine-4-carboxylate III representing the polar part of the naturally occurring mycestericins E and mycestericins G.
