What is The Allyl and Benzyl Glycosides of D-erythrose about?

D-Erythrose (l), first described by Wohl', has been prepared by a variety of methods. Perhaps the most commonly used procedure' involves the hydrolysis of 2,4-O-ethylidene-D-erythrose (2), a compound that has also been used to prepare derivatives of 1 and as an intermediate for the synthesis of higher sugars3. Despite the extensive literature concernins the preparation of 1 and the chemistry of 2, the reactivity of 1, itself, has received scant attention\_ GIycosidation studies, for example, have been limited to the preparation of the methyl furanosides'-6. A recent program at this laboratory concernin= 17 an investigation of the organoleptic properties of various sugars and derived compounds has included an interest in 1 and its compounds\_ For the preparation of derivatives of D-erythrofuranose bearing acid-or base-Iabi!e substituents at C-3 and C-3, the ally1 and benzyl erythrofuranosides seemed to be suitable starting compounds, as benzyl and ally1 ethers may be cleaved under neutral conditions. Hydrogenolysis readily cleaves benzyl glycosides', and Gigg and his associates have shown that the isomerizing step of deallylation may be effected by a rhodium catalyst 8\*9. Subsequen
