The synthesis of trimethylene dithioacetals of D-ribose, D-allose and D-altrose and their isopropylidenation is described. In the latter reaction, fundamental differences are found depending on the reaction system and the reaction conditions. Monoisopropylidene compounds are obtained by a kinetically controlled reaction (acetone or 2-methoxypropene, acid, and short reaction time) or by a thermodynamically controlled reaction in acetone/water. Diisopropylidene derivatives are formed using acetone and 2-methoxypropene, acid, and longer reaction time. The structures are assigned by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy.
