4-C-Formyl-2-azidoglucopyranoside 12a, required for N-acetyl-C-lactosamine synthesis as electrophile, was obtained from thexyldimethylsilyl 2-azido-2-deoxy-glucopyranoside 3 via readily available 4-O-unprotected 6a and then 4-C-methylene derivative 8a in overall seven steps.Alternatively, regioselective silylation of 3 with tert-butyldimethylsilyl chloride gave 4-O-unprotected 6b which was transformed by a similar reaction sequence into 12a.In order to circumvent a Wittig reaction, 6a was transformed into triflate 13 the reaction of which with 4-C-cyano derivative 14 followed by reduction with DIBAH and base-catalyzed isomerization also afforded 12a.Reaction of 12a with 1-C-lithiated 2-phenylsulfinyl-D-galactal 15 as nucleophile furnished C-disaccharide intermediates 16a and 16b as diastereoisomers.Ensuing removal of the phenylsulfinyl group with Raney nickel and diastereospecific 2b-hydrogen and 3b-hydroxy transfer afforded β(1->4)-connected N-acetyl-C-lactosamines 19a and 19b; their structures were deduced from derivatives 20a, b and 21a, b on the basis of 1H-NMR data.Hydrogenolytic O-debenzylation of 19b afforded hydroxymethylene-bridged N-acetyl-C-lactosamine 2b'. - Keywords: C-Saccharide; C-Glycosides; C-Lactosamine; 1-Lithiogalactal; Vinillithium; Branched sugars; Glucosamine, C-formyl
