Multipurpose sugars: Carbohydrate-derived silane reagents are utilized as the reductant for nickel-catalyzed aldehyde–alkyne reductive coupling reactions and as the glycosyl donor for subsequent intramolecular glycosylation. The approach enables the assembly of the carbon–carbon framework and stereochemical features of an aglycone while simultaneously establishing the site of glycosylation.
