An improved synthetic protocol towards 1-deoxy-[4,4-H-2(2)]-D-xylulose (1a) (= 1-deoxy-[4,4-H-2(2)]-D-threopentulose) from dimethyl 2,3-O-isopropylidene-o-tartrate (2) (44% overall yield) is described. The key-operation is a novel one-pot reductive alkylation of the protected halfester 3, by sequential treatment with superdeuteride(hydride) and methyl lithium, providing the protected 1-deoxy-D-xylulose (5) in high yield.
