Automated Quantification of Hydroxyl Reactivities: Prediction of Glycosylation Reactions

The stereoselectivity and yield in glycosylation reactions are paramount but unpredictable. We have developed a database of acceptor nucleophilic constants (Aka) to quantify the nucleophilicity of hydroxyl groups in glycosylation influenced by the steric, electronic and structural effects, providing a connection between experiments and computer algorithms. The subtle reactivity differences among the hydroxyl groups on various carbohydrate molecules can be defined by Aka, which is easily accessible by a simple and convenient automation system to assure high reproducibility and accuracy. A diverse range of glycosylation donors and acceptors with well-defined reactivity and promoters were organized and processed by the designed software program “GlycoComputer” for prediction of glycosylation reactions without involving sophisticated computational processing. The importance of Aka was further verified by random forest algorithm, and the applicability was tested by the synthesis of a Lewis A skeleton to show that the stereoselectivity and yield can be accurately estimated.

2-Deoxyglycosyl 3-benzoylpropionates as novel donors for the direct and stereoselective synthesis of 2-deoxy-glycosides

Lewis acid mediated stereoselective synthesis of 2-deoxy-O-glycosides has been demonstrated using 2-deoxyglycosyl 3-benzoylpropionates as novel glycosyl donors. These newly developed donors are easily synthesized from simple glycals, are stable at room te

Fluorine-directed 1,2-trans glycosylation of rare sugars

To reconcile the urgent need to access well defined β-configured 2,6-di-deoxypyranose analogues for chemical biology, with the intrinsic α-selectivity of the native system, the directing role of fluorine at C2 has been explored. Localised partial charge inversion (C-Hδ+ → C-Fδ-) elicits a reversal of the substrate-based α-stereoselectivity, irrespective of the protecting group electronics.

Reagent-Controlled α-Selective Dehydrative Glycosylation of 2,6-Dideoxy- and 2,3,6-Trideoxy Sugars

We have found that activating either 2,3-bis(2,3,4-trimethoxyphenyl)cyclopropenone or 2,3-bis(2,3,4-trimethoxyphenyl)cyclopropene-1-thione with oxalyl bromide results in the formation of a species that promotes the glycosylation between 2,6-dideoxy-sugar hemiacetals and glycosyl acceptors in good yield and high α-selectivity. Both reactions are mild and tolerate a number of sensitive functional groups including highly acid-labile 2,3,6-trideoxy-sugar linkages.

Highly stereoselective glycosyl-chloride-mediated synthesis of 2-deoxyglucosides

Cl intermediates: The glycosylation of per-O-benzylated 2-deoxy- and 2,6-dideoxythioglycosides, promoted by the combination of para-toluenesulfenyl chloride (p-TolSCl) and silver triflate (AgOTf), furnished the products in high yields and high stereoselec

Cyclopropenium cation promoted dehydrative glycosylations using 2-deoxy- and 2,6-dideoxy-sugar donors

Dehydrative glycosylation reactions using 2-deoxy- and 2,6-dideoxy-sugar donors promoted by a combination of 3,3-dichloro-1,2-diphenylcyclopropene and tetrabutylammonium iodide (TBAI) are described. The reactions are α-selective and proceed under mild con
