their chemical synthesis is difficult. Here we present a simple chemoenzymatic method for preparing differentially protected 3-deoxysugar derivatives from readily available starting materials. It exploits the promiscuous aldolase activity of the enzyme macrophomate synthase (MPS) to add pyruvate enolate diastereoselectively to a wide range of structurally complex aldehydes. A short synthesis of KDN illustrates
