Intramolecular C-arylation of 2,3,5-tri-O-benzyl- and 2,3,5-tri-O-(3-methylbenzyl)-pentofuranose derivatives.

Upon treatment with tin(IV) chloride, 1-O-acetyl-2,3,5-tri-O-benzyl- and 1-O-acetyl-2,3,5-tri-O-(3-methylbenzyl)pentofuranose (D-ribo, L-arabino) undergo intramolecular Friedel-Crafts alkylation of the aromatic substituent at O-2 to give unusual internal

Intramolecular C-Arylation of Benzylated Sugars. The Unexpected Double C-Glycosideration of Tris-O-m-methoxybenzyl-β-D-ribofuranose Derivatives

Upon treatment with tin(IV) chloride, D-ribofuranose derivatives bearing activated O-benzyl groups were found to undergo single or double intramolecular C-arylation, with m-methyl- and m-methoxy-substituted benzyl groups respectively.
