Abstract

The hydrogenolysis of methyl 3,5-0-benzylidene-α- and -β-D-xylofuranoside derivatives with the LiAlH 4-AlCl 3 reagent gave 5-benzyl ethers as main products. In some cases the attack of the reagent occured at the ring oxygen of the furenoside skeleton to yield 5-0-benzyl-1-0-methylxylitol derivatives. The structure of the synthesized compounds was proved by 13C-NMR spectroscopy. Unambiguous assignment of lines in the 13C-NMR spectra of numerous partially methylated methyl α-and β- d-xylofuranoside derivatives has been made.
