Treatment of sugar oxirans with hydrogen cyanide–triethylaluminium in ether has been shown to be a useful method for the synthesis of cyano-deoxy-glycoses. Reactions of such compounds have been studied, in particular epimerisation at the cyanide-bearing centre, and formation of cyano-olefin derivatives.
