Carbohydrate scaffolds have been known for its vast utility in organic synthesis. In particular, C3-branched sugars have been known to be useful precursors for the synthesis of some natural products. Herein, we report a stereoselective method for the synthesis of C3-branched sugars and C3-branched a...
