Abstract The synthesis and properties of 6‐Desoxy‐ D ‐glucosamine are described. The more important steps of the synthesis are: Tosylation of the primary alcoholgroup of a suitable derivative of D‐glucosamine with succeeding acetylation, the replacement of the tosylgroup by jodine and the catalytical cleavage of the halide with RANEY nickel in the presence of triethylamine.
