L ‐Olivomycal 8 , obtained from L ‐rhamnose ( 10 ) in six steps, was used as a precursor for the preparation of methyl N ‐acetyl‐4‐amino‐2,4,6‐trideoxy‐3‐ C ‐methyl‐α‐ L ‐rhamnohexopyranoside ( 5b ). The amino group at C‐4 of 5b was introduced by intramolecular nucleophilic displacement of a (trichloromethyl)imidate derived from 8 , yielding the 3,4‐ trans ‐(trichloromethyl)oxazoline 13 with retention of configuration. Compound 13 was further converted into the N ‐acetamide 14 by basic hydrolysis and subsequent acetylation. N ‐Iodosuccinimide‐promoted glycosylation and reductive dehalogenation yielded the target molecule 5b , together with its β epimer 5c (α/β = 85:15). Comparison of the NMR spectroscopic data of 5b with those of saccharocarcin E sugar and several other 4‐amino‐2‐deoxyhexoses revealed similarities between saccharocarcin E sugar and kijanimicin derivative 23 , which suggest the proposed β‐ L ‐ xylo ‐hexopyranose configuration 4d for saccharocarcin E sugar.
