Tail‐to‐tail C,C ‐coupled pyranoses or furanoses like 2 with a disaccharide‐like structure were obtained from hydroxylated dialdehydes like 1 under aldolase catalysis. The key step is the twofold addition of dihydroxyacetone phosphate. As many as six stereocenters in the products can be controlled by a thermodynamically selective reaction mode.
