A novel synthesis of furanodictines A [2-acetamido-3,6-anhydro-2-deoxy-5-O-isovaleryl-D-glucofuranose (1)] and B [2-acetamido-3,6-anhydro-2-deoxy-5-O-isovaleryl-D-mannofuranose (2)] is described starting from 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-glucose (GlcNAc). The synthetic protocol is based on deriving the epimeric bicyclic 3,6-anhydro sugars [2-acetamido-3,6-anhydro-2-deoxy-D-glucofuranose (4) and 2-acetamido-3,6-anhydro-2-deoxy-D-mannofuranose (5)] from GlcNAc.

Intrinsic and acquired drug resistance and induction of secondary malignancies limit successful chemotherapy. Because mutagenic translesion synthesis (TLS) contributes to chemoresistance as well as treatment-induced mutations, targeting TLS is an attractive avenue for improving chemotherapeutics. However, development of small molecules with
