Stereoselective functionalization of carbohydrates may be possible with sugar–carbene complexes 1 , in which the C‐1 atom is modified to be a metal‐coordinated carbene. This results in an increase both of the electrophilicity of C‐1 and the acidity of the adjacent CH group. M = Cr, Mo, W, x = 5; M = Fe, x = 4.
