Methanolyses of the #? and CI anomers afford the methyl tl-and p-glycosides which were isolated in yields of 74 and 87%, respectively; n.m.r. examinations indicated that, whereas the /?-glycoside was produced stereospecifically, the a-glycoside was formed together with-6% of its /I isomer. The approach can be extended to the synthesis of complex glycosides (the a anomers of which are of special interest) as was illustrated by the preparation of cholestanyl and 1-naphthyl a-o-glucopyranoside and a disaccharide derivative.

Recognition of the ions produced by this latter mode can provide means for allocating the positions of double bonds in unsaturated carbohydrates, but since allylic rearrangements can, in some circumstances, precede fragmentations, care has to be taken in interpreting the spectra. The spectrumof 1,2,4-tri- O -acetyl-3-deoxy-β- d - glycero -pent-2-enopyranose indicates that isomerisation to 5,5,6-triacetoxy-5,6-dihydro-2 H -pyran occurs prior to fragmentation. Such an isomerisation has not been observed before with unsaturated sugars.
