title: A short and efficient transformation of rhamnose into activated daunosamine, acosamine, ristosamine and epi-daunosamine derivatives, and synthesis of an anthracycline antibiotic acosaminyl-epsilon-iso-rhodomycinone.
abstract: 3-Amino-2,3,6-trideoxyhexopyranoses are essential constituents of most anthracycline antitumour antibiotics. For an investigation of structure-activity relationships, the four diastereomeric amino sugars daunosamine, acosamine, ristosamine, and epi-daunosamine were synthesised in short and efficient routes starting from commercially available rhamnose. Several glycosyl donors were provided and their use was exemplified in the synthesis of acosaminyl-epsilon-isorhodomycinone.
