ABSTRACT:

In the title compound (systematic name

{(3aS,5S,6R,6aS)-3a-[(benz-yloxy)meth-yl]-6-hy-droxy-2,2-di-methyl-tetra-hydro-furo[2,3-d][1,3]dioxol-5-yl}methyl 4-methyl-benzene-sulfonate), C23H28O8S, the absolute structure and relative stereochemistry of the four chiral centres have been established by X-ray crystallography, with the absolute configuration inferred from the use of l-sorbose as the starting material. The central furan-ose ring adopts a slightly twisted envelope conformation (with the C atom bearing the methyl-benzene-sulfonate substituent as the flap) from which three substituents depart pseudo-axially (-CH2-O-benzyl, -OH and one acetonide O atom) and two substituents pseudo-equatorially (-CH2-O-tosyl and second acetonide O atom). The dioxalane ring is in a flattened envel
