D-Glucuronic acid glycals can be efficiently synthesized from diacetone glucose or tri-O-acetyl glycal and can be transformed into D-glucuronic acid donors and acceptors in high yields. Base catalyzed epimerization of D-glucuronic acid glycals provides access to the corresponding L-iduronic acid glycals. Both D-glucuronic and L-iduronic acid glycals were transformed into glycosylating agents for use in the synthesis of glycosaminoglycan oligosaccharides.
