The first stereocontrolled synthesis of (3R,4R,5R,6S)-2,2-bis-(hydroxymethyi)azepane-3,4,5,6-tetraol is described herein. The method involves a novel double Henry reaction of the 3,5-di-O-benzyl-6-deoxy-1,2 -O-isopropyIidene-6-nitro-alpha-D-glucofuranose with formaldehyde followed by a reductive ring closure to give the first branched 1,6-dideoxy-1,6-heptitol described.
