Abstract
[reaction: see text] Di-D-fructose 1,2':2,1'-dianhydrides, dispiro-tricyclic disaccharides widely found in food materials, have been stereoselectively prepared in one-pot reaction from O-protected D-fructose 1,2-acetonide precursors by treatment with boron trifluoride diethyl etherate. The dimerization sequence involves (i) cleavage of the anomeric acetal linkage, (ii) autoglycosylation, and (iii) final spiroketalization, the stereochemical outcome being strongly dependent on the nature of the hydroxyl protecting groups.
