A three‐step sequence—homoaldol reaction, epoxidation, methanolysis —can be employed to extend ( S )‐2‐benzyloxypropanal 1 by one 2‐hydroxy‐3‐methylpropanal unit. This method provides a general route to unnatural 3‐deoxy‐3‐methylaldoses in the form of anomerically pure methylfuranosides such as 2 bearing a free 2‐hydroxyl group.
