Abstract
5-Deoxy-D-xylofuranose derivatives and a range of new 5,6-dideoxy analogs of D-glucofuranose bearing azido or fluoro substituents were synthesised and employed as substrates of the NADH-dependent aldehyde reduction catalysed by yeast aldose reductase. In terms of catalytic efficiencies, these products proved to be superior to the parent compounds.
