| Abstract | A new Staudinger/aza Wittig/Strecker multicomponent reaction sequence to C-1-cyano iminoalditols has been developed. When applied to 5-azidodeoxy-D-xylose and -D-glucose as substrates the method leads smoothly in good yield and with excellent stereoselectivity to respectively, 1,5-dideoxy-1,5-imino-D-idurono nitrile and 2,6-didesoxy-2,6-imino-D-glycero-D-ido-heptononitrile.
