title: Radical mediated ring opening of 1,2-cyclopropanated-D-glycal: unusual formation of S-methylglycosyl-S-methylthiocarbonate.
abstract: Tri-n-butyltin hydride mediated ring opening of 1,2-cyclo- propanated-D-glycals led to the formation of 1-C-methyl 2,3-unsaturated sugars. However, corresponding catalytic version provided an unusual S-methylglycosyl-S-methyldithiocarbonate derivative whose mechanism of formation has been proposed.
