Towards the synthesis of a Yersinia pestis cell wall polysaccharide: enantioselective synthesis of an L-glycero-D-manno-heptose building block.
A short and enantioselective de novo synthesis of an L-glycero-D-manno-heptose building block for the total synthesis of a Yersinia pestis cell wall polysaccharide is described.
