Abstract

New opportunities in the functionalization of carbohydrates arise from carbene complex modified glycals. They undergo a chromium-induced benzannulation to give benzoglycals 1 and allow a C2-homologization to 2 with retention of the metal–carbene bond by a diastereoselective insertion of ynol ethers.
