3-Amino-2,3,6-trideoxyhexopyranoses are essential constituents of most anthracycline antitumour antibiotics. For an investigation of structure-activity relationships, the four diastereomeric amino sugars daunosamine, acosamine, ristosamine, and epidaunosamine were synthesised in short and efficient routes starting from commercially available rhamnose. Several glycosyl donors were provided and their use was exemplified in the synthesis of acosaminyl-ε-iso-rhodomycinone.
