Abstract :
The application of the Wittig reaction to prepare chain-extended polyols starting from protected 2-deoxysugars has been investigated. The standard conditions cause alcohol elimination from the deoxysugar, leading to a diene. Triphenyl and tributyltin halides have been found to prevent alcohol elimination, so that the expected alkene is produced.
