“…A mixture of methyl 6- O -trityl-α- d -glucopyranoside ( 40 ) (25 mg, 0.057 mmol), 1 (0.39 mg, 0.001 mmol) and acetic anhydride (6.3 μL, 0.063 mmol) was stirred in CHCl 3 (1 mL) for 45 min and worked-up as given in the general procedure B. Compound 41 73 was secured after column chromatography (SiO 2 ) (eluant: n -hexane–EtOAc 3 : 2), as a colorless gum (16.9 mg, 62%). 1 H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl 3 ) δ 7.46–7.44 (m, 6 H), 7.33–7.29 (m, 6 H), 7.26–7.23 (m, 3 H), 5.05 (t, J = 9.4 Hz, 1 H), 4.78 (d, J = 4 Hz, 1 H), 3.71–3.66 (m, 1 H), 3.61 (t, J = 9.2 Hz, 2 H), 3.44 (s, 3 H), 3.41–3.39 (m, 2 H), 2.15 (s, 3 H).…”
