A convenient 4-step synthesis of calceolarioside-B 1 and eutigoside-A 2 in high overall yield is described. The key step involved the regioselective, Me2SnCl2-catalyzed O-6 acylation of unprotected 2-phenylethyl-β-D-glucosides 5a–b with cinnamoyl chlorides 6a–b in excellent yields. Acylation at O-6 is selective with the acid chlorides used. This work serves as a model for the convenient synthesis of phenylpropanoid glycosides acylated at O-6.

A general strategy for the synthesis of phenylethanoid glycosides (PhG) including echinacoside 1, acteoside 2, calceolarioside-A 3 and calceolarioside-B 4 is reported. The strategy features the application of low substrate concentration glycosylation and N-formyl morpholine modulated glycosylation methods for the construction of 1,2-trans β- and α-glycosidic bonds. The reported strategy does not invoke the use of the participatory acyl protecting function, which is incompatible with the ester function present in target PhG compounds. A preliminary study of the anti-proliferation properties of the PhG compounds 1-4 was performed; the acteoside 2 exhibited the best inhibition on the prostatic cancer cell proliferation. This journal is the Partner Organisations 2014.
