This procedure is based on column chromatographic separation of their diastereomeric 0-(N-rm-butyloxycarbonyl)-L-alanyl esters, followed by mild acidic cleavage of the ester function. L-Aculosc, 2, 3, 6-tridcoxy-L-glycero-hcx-2-cnopyranos-4-ulosc, is also prepared in satisfactory yield. © 1991, Taylor & Francis Group, LLC. All rights reserved." }
