In this study, we reported the regio/site-selective alkylation of substrates containing a cis-, 1,2- or 1,3-diol with FeCl3 as a key catalyst. A catalytic system consisting of FeCl3 (0.01-0.1 equiv.) and dipivaloylmethane (FeCl3/dipivaloylmethane = 1/2) was used to catalyze the alkylation in the presence of a base. The produced selectivities and isolated yields were similar to those obtained by methods using the same amount of FeL3 (L = acylacetone ligand) as the catalyst in most cases. The previously reported FeL3 catalysts for alkylation are not commercially available and have to be synthesized prior to use. In contrast, FeCl3 and dipivaloylmethane (Hdipm) are very common and inexpensive nontoxic reagents in the lab, thereby making the method much greener and easier to handle. Mechanism studies confirmed for the first time that FeCl3 initially reacts with two equivalents of Hdipm to form [Fe(dipm)3] in the presence of a base in acetonitrile, followed by the formation of a five or six-membered ring intermediate between [Fe(dipm)3] and two hydroxyl groups of the substrate. A subsequent reaction between the cyclic intermediate and the alkylating agent results in selective alkylation of the substrate.

Chiral sugar derivatives are potential cyclitol surrogates of the Ca2+-mobilizing intracellular messenger d-myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3]. Six novel polyphosphorylated analogues derived from both d- and l-glucose were synthesized. Binding to Ins(1,4,5)P3 receptors [Ins(1,4,5)P3R] and the ability to release Ca2+ from intracellular stores via type 1 Ins(1,4,5)P3Rs were investigated. β-d-Glucopyranosyl 1,3,4-tris-phosphate, with similar phosphate regiochemistry and stereochemistry to Ins(1,4,5)P3, and α-d-glucopyranosyl 1,3,4-tris-phosphate are full agonists, being equipotent and 23-fold less potent than Ins(1,4,5)P3, respectively, in Ca2+-release assays and similar to Ins(1,4,5)P3 and 15-fold weaker in binding assays. They can be viewed as truncated analogues of adenophostin A and refine understanding of structure-activity relationships for this Ins(1,4,5)P3R agonist. l-Glucose-derived ligands, methyl α-l-glucopyranoside 2,3,6-trisphosphate and methyl α-l-glucopyranoside 2,4,6-trisphosphate, are also active, while their corresponding d-enantiomers, methyl α-d-glucopyranoside 2,3,6-trisphosphate and methyl α-d-glucopyranoside 2,4,6-trisphosphate, are inactive. Interestingly, both l-glucose-derived ligands are partial agonists: they are among the least efficacious agonists of Ins(1,4,5)P3R yet identified, providing new leads for antagonist development.
Highly Efficient Selective Benzylation of Carbohydrates Catalyzed by Iron(III) with Silver Oxide and Bromide Anion as Co-catalysts

A highly efficient, green, and regioselective method for the benzylation of diols and polyols was developed. With the use of Ag2O (0.6 equiv.) and tetrabutylammonium bromide (0.1 equiv.) as co-catalysts, the iron(III)-catalyzed benzylation reaction proceeded to completion at 40 °C within 2–3 h and gave the products in high yields with high regioselectivities. A mechanism involving the principle of enhanced basicity of Ag2O by soft anions was proposed.

As an extension of our previous research on the regioselective protection of carbohydrates and diols, we developed an iron catalyst, Fe(dibm)3 (dibm = diisobutyrylmethane), which has an unusually broad catalytic scope in the selective monoalkyl

In this study, [Fe(dibm)3] (dibm=diisobutyrylmethane) is shown to have unusually broad scope as a catalyst for the selective monoalkylation of a diverse set of 1,2- and 1,3-diol-containing structures. The mechanism is proposed to proceed via a cyclic dioxolane-type intermediate, formed between the iron(III) species and two adjacent hydroxyl groups. This approach represents the first transition-metal catalysts that are able to replace stoichiometric amounts of organotin reagents in regioselective alkylation. The reactions generally lead to very high regioselectivities and high yields, on par with, or better than, previous methods used for regioselective alkylation.

An efficient method for regioselective benzoylation of diols and polyols was developed. The benzoylation is catalyzed by only 0.2 equiv of benzoate anion in acetonitrile with the addition of a stoichiometric amount of benzoic anhydride under very mild condition, leading to high yields. Compared with all other methods, this method shows particular advantage in regioselective multiple benzoylation of polyols, and in avoiding the use of any metal-based catalysts and any amine bases, which is more environment-friendly.
