Abstract
Hydroxy derivatives I, II, III, XVII and XX were oxidized to give the respective aldehydes IV, V, VI, XVIII and XXI which were further converted by Wittig-Horner reaction into unsaturated methyl and ethyl esters. Removal of the acetal protecting group in position 3 afforded methylesters X, XXIV and XXXVI and ethyl esters XIV, XXV and XXXVII. Compounds XXIV, XXV, XXXVI and XXXVII were converted into the corresponding hemisuccinates XXVIII, XXIX, XL and XLI and β-D-glucosides XXXII, XXXIII, XLIV and XLV.
