The multi-step synthesis from D-galactose comprises oxidizing the D-galactose in KOH solution to open the pyranose ring and form potassium D-lyxonate, subjecting the latter compound to alcoholic solution under acid conditions to provide furanose ring closure and form the D-lyxono-1,4-lactone, and then introducing a protecting group at C-2 and C-3 by reaction with ketone in the presence of a dehydrating agent. Use of acetone as the ketone in the latter step gives the compound 2,3-0-isopropylidene-D-lyxono-1,4-lactone. From that point on the multi-step system includes the general reaction steps of the above short synthesis.
