Abstract

AbstractThe rare carbohydrate L‐(+)‐noviose was synthesized from enantiomerically pure L‐lactate. The configuration at C‐4 was established by diastereoselective nucleophilic addition to an in‐situ‐generated lactaldehyde. The resulting homoallylic alcohol was further transformed into a set of ring‐closing metathesis (RCM) precursors. These compounds were converted into noviose in few steps using RCM and RCM–allylic‐oxidation sequences.
