5-O-Acetyl-2,3,6-trideoxy-3-phthalimido-ß-L-ribo-hexofuranose (2) was converted to its corresponding methyl glycoside 3. After deprotection with 33% methylamine in ethanol and subsequent protection of the amino group with trifluoroacetic anhydride and the hydroxy group with 4-nitrobenzoyl chloride, the resulting compound 5 was transformed into the appropriate glycosyl bromide 7 via the 1-O-acetyl derivative 6. Compound 7 was coupled with daunomycinone in the presence of yellow mercury(II) oxide and mercury(II) bromide.
