  • 3-acylamino-3-deoxyallose derivatives
    Patent number: 4849512
    Abstract: Derivatives of 3-acylamino-3-deoxyallose represented by the following formula: ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 may be hydrogen atoms, or R.sup.1 and R.sup.2, and R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 may be in combination an isopropylidene group, R.sup.5 represents a hydrogen atom or alkyl group, and R.sup.6 represents a hydrogen atom or acyl group, are disclosed. One of the typical compound 3-deoxy-3-(3-tetradecanoyloxytetradecanoylamino)-1,2:5,6-di-O-isopropylide ne- .alpha.-D-allofuranose is prepared by reacting 3-tetradecanoyloxytetradecanoic acid and 3-amino-3-deoxy-1,2:5,6-di-O-isopropylidene-.alpha.-D-allofuranose in the presence of N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, as a dehydrating agent.
