5‐thio‐ D ‐xylopyranose, a synthon used for the preparation of drugs with antithrombotic activity, was synthesised by an enzymatic isomerisation from the corresponding ketose, 5‐thio‐ D ‐xylulofuranose, with glucose isomerase. This compound was obtained by two different chemoenzymatic routes, the key step being the stereospecific formation of a C–C bond, catalysed by transketolase or fructose‐1,6‐bisphosphate aldolase.
