D-Ribose-1-C 14 and D-arabinose-1-C 14 have been synthesized by a modified Sowden–Fischer procedure in which the mixed sodium nitropentitols resulting from the condensation of erythrose and C 14 H 3 NO 2 have been submitted to a Nef reaction. The epimeric labelled pentoses were isolated by cellulose column chromatography in an over-all radiochemical yield of 19%.Mixed nitropentitols-1-C 14 have been acetylated, partially deacetylated with sodium bicarbonate in a non-polar solvent, and hydrogenated to yield triacetoxy-1-nitropentane-1-C 14 . The mixture of this material and the accompanying undeacetylated nitropentitols gave rise, via a Nef reaction, to D-2-deoxyribose-1-C 14 (6.3%), D-ribose-1-C 14 (3.1%), and D-arabinose-1-C 14 (2.9%).
