Abstract

The stereochemistry of dehalogenation of 2-halo sugars with tributyltin hydride has been investigated in terms of the influence of steric and conformational effects using deuterium-labeling techniques. Detailed analysis of the results (Tables I–III) demonstrates that the size and orientation of the ring substituents are a determining factor in the stereochemical outcome of the reaction. However, some results can only be explained considering reduction of two equilibrating radical conformers.
