The (8'R) epimeric carbohydrate core 2 of amipurimycin was synthesized from D-glucose derived allylic alcohol 3 in 11 steps and 13% overall yield. The key steps involve an acid-catalyzed acetonide ring opening of 9 with concomitant formation of an unprecedented pyranose ring skeleton to give 2,7-dioxabicyclo[3.2.1]octane 10.

The (8'R) epimeric carbohydrate core 2 of amipurimycin was synthesized from D-glucose derived allylic alcohol 3 in 11 steps and 13% overall yield. The key steps involve an acid-catalyzed acetonide ring opening of 9 with concomitant formation of an unprecedented pyranose ring skeleton to give 2,7-dioxabicyclo[3.2.1]octane 10. The alpha-orientation of the furan ring in 10 readily allows the stereoselective beta-glycosylation and opening of the furanose ring that on removal of protecting groups affords the pyranosyl adenine nucleoside 2. The antifungal and anticancer activities of 2 were studied.
