title: Synthesis of the amino sugar from C-1027.
abstract: [reaction: see text] The amino sugar side chain (2) from C-1027Chr was synthesized in 12 steps from mannose. The key reactions are an internal displacement by nitrogen to introduce the cis amino group at C-4 and the methylation of an enolate at C-5.
