Closed and re‐opened for business : C‐2 branched carbohydrates 1 cyclize under conditions of decarboxylation to the hitherto unknown carbohydrate 1,2‐lactones 2 in high yields. The gluco isomer can be opened at the anomeric position with various nuceophiles in the presence of Sc(OTf) 3 , which allows the stereoselective synthesis of 1‐functionalized glucose derivatives 3 . Thus, 1,2‐ bis‐C ‐branched saccharides become available in only a few steps starting from glycals.
