accessibility of ynopyranosides [20] and the recent results of Harrity and co-workers [21] who showed that dicobalt hexacarbonyl clusters [22] could act as EDGs in a similar situation, we anticipated that our TIBAL-mediated reductive rearrangement applied to the difluoroalkene 2 might provide a convenient entry to our target molecule 1 (Scheme 2). Synthesis of the ynopyranose 6, the precursor of compound 2, is depicted in Scheme3. The known [20] gemdibromoalkene 3 was first converted into alkyne 4 through methylation of the acetylenic anion generated in situ. Acetolysis,[23] followed by hydrolysis of the generated anomeric acetate, and oxidation of the hemiacetal afforded the corresponding lactone 5. Difluoromethylenation according to Motherwell et al.[24] provided the desired gem-difluoroalkene precursor 6.As anticipated and much to our delight, the key rearrangement was performed through a two-step one-pot procedure that involved first, the complexation of the alkyne 6 by dicobalt octacarbonyl,[25] followed by the reductive TIBAL-induced rearrangement of 2.[17] Decomplexation with CAN (ceric ammonium nitrate)[26] of the crude compound 7 afforded alcohol 8 in 75% yield over three steps and only one purification step by chromatography. The 5a-gem-difluorocarba-α-d-glucopyranose 1 [27] was then easily obtained by controlled reduction of the triple bond, reductive ozonolysis, and debenzylation (Scheme4). As previously observed,[15] the rearrangement occurs with retention of configuration. The reduction of the putative transient
