Abstract
A thioalkyl derivative has been synthesized by two distinct methods. One of these methods left no doubt as to the structural configuration. It is suggested that the other method of synthesis yields first an epoxy anhydro derivative which on further reaction leads to the thioalkyl carbohydrate, namely, 6-deoxy-6-thioethyl-D-galactose.
