Primary hydroxy groups in pyranoses are oxidized in excellent yields to the corresponding carboxylic acids. In furanose 3 the yield of acid is only moderate. Secondary hydroxy groups are inert, aside from lactols. The different reactivity of secondary and primary hydroxy groups allows the chemoselective oxidation of 8 and 10.
