  • Abstract
    The reductive opening of 2-methoxyethylidene acetals of vicinal diols in uridine and 1,4-anhydro-D-ribitol in the presence of TiCl4 and Et3SiH was investigated. The 3ʹ-O-(2-methoxyethyl) ether of uridine and the 2ʹ-O-(2-methoxyethyl) ether of 1,4-anhydro-D-ribitol were isolated and characterized. The results were rationalized based on coordination effects involving proximal substituents.
