3-Deoxy-d-threopentofuranose 5-phosphate, a substrate of arabinose 5-phosphate isomerase, has been synthesised starting from d-arabinose. Selective protection of the hydroxyl groups at C-1, C-2, and C-5 allowed deoxygenation of position 3 by conversion into a thiocarbamate and radical reduction. Deprotection and phosphorylation of the primary hydroxyl group and final deprotection of the other hydroxyl groups afforded the desired compound.

Abstract
3-Deoxy-d-threopentofuranose 5-phosphate, a substrate of arabinose 5-phosphate isomerase, has been synthesised starting from d-arabinose. Selective protection of the hydroxyl groups at C-1, C-2, and C-5 allowed deoxygenation of position 3 by conversion into a thiocarbamate and radical reduction. Deprotection and phosphorylation of the primary hydroxyl group and final deprotection of the other hydroxyl groups afforded the desired compound.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
