Release of Ring Strain as Driving Force for Inversion of Stereochemistry - Application to the Synthesis of Ribopyranosides from Xylopyranosides

Manner, Sophie LU and Ellervik, Ulf LU (2014) In Synlett 25(9). p.1271-1274
Abstract
By using a Swern oxidation-epimerization-reduction sequence it is possible to selectively epimerize any position in isopropylidene-protected xylopyranosides, thus forming arabinosides, ribosides, and lyxosides. The driving force for epimerization of position 3 (xylo to ribo) is the release of ring strain by going from a 1,2-trans-acetal to a 1,2-cis-acetal.
