Abstract <p>Biomass-derived sugars have attracted increasing attention in recent years as an alternative carbon source. Although significant advances have been reported in the development of catalysts for the conversion of carbohydrates into key chemicals, only a limited range of products can be obtained. We herein describe the highly-selective cascade syntheses of a range of useful compounds using biomass-derived sugars and aldehydes. We especially focus on the upgrade of 1,3-dihydroxyacetone (DHA) generated from glucose to yield useful compounds via C-C bond formation. The establishment of this novel synthetic methodology to generate valuable chemical products from saccharides renders carbohydrates a potential alternative carbon resource to fossil fuels.</p>
