Here, we report the selective, catalytic isomerization of cis-1,2-diols to trans-diequatorial-1,2-diols. The method employs triphenylsilanethiol (Ph3SiSH) as a catalyst and proceeds under mild conditions in the presence of a photoredox catalyst and under
A Unified Strategy to Access 2- And 4-Deoxygenated Sugars Enabled by Manganese-Promoted 1,2-Radical Migration

The selective manipulation of carbohydrate scaffolds is challenging due to the presence of multiple, nearly chemically indistinguishable O-H and C-H bonds. As a result, protecting-group-based synthetic strategies are typically necessary for carbohydrate modification. Here we report a concise semisynthetic strategy to access diverse 2- and 4-deoxygenated carbohydrates without relying on the exhaustive use of protecting groups to achieve site-selective reaction outcomes. Our approach leverages a Mn2+-promoted redox isomerization step, which proceeds via sugar radical intermediates accessed by neutral hydrogen atom abstraction under visible light-mediated photoredox conditions. The resulting deoxyketopyranosides feature chemically distinguishable functional groups and are readily transformed into diverse carbohydrate structures. To showcase the versatility of this method, we report expedient syntheses of the rare sugars l-ristosamine, l-olivose, l-mycarose, and l-digitoxose from commercial l-rhamnose. The findings presented here validate the potential for radical intermediates to facilitate the selective transformation of carbohydrates and showcase the step and efficiency advantages attendant to synthetic strategies that minimize a reliance upon protecting groups.

The synthesis of four new ribo-hexopyranoside-based chiral lariat ethers of monoaza-15-crown-5 type and two altropyranoside-based crown ethers were elaborated. Our syntheses utilized the regioselective ring opening of the oxiran moiety of the 2,3-anhydro sugars by nucleophilic reagents to afford the key intermediates. The reaction of methyl-2,3-anhydro-4,6-O-benzylidene-α-d- mannopyranoside with ethanolamine is especially of interest to afford a 3-substituted altropyranoside. One of the ribo-hexopyranoside-based lariat ethers with a 4-methoxyphenyl substituent induced an enantioselectivity of 80% when used as catalyst in the Michael addition of diethyl acetamidomalonate to trans-β-nitrostyrene under phase transfer catalytic conditions.

Take control! An unprecedented sulfenylation of stereochemically defined 2-deoxyglycosyl lithium species with asymmetric sugar-derived disulfide acceptors enabled the stereoselective synthesis of both α- and β-S-linked 2-deoxyoligosaccharides. Reductive lithiation of 2-deoxyglycosyl phenylsulfides at -78°C provides predominantly axial glycosyl lithium species, which upon warming isomerize to predominantly equatorial lithium species (see scheme).

4,6-O-Benzylidenation of D-galactal with PhCH(OCH3)2 catalyzed by bromodimethylsulfonium bromide leads to methyl 2-dexoy-4,6-O- benzylidene galactopyranoside efficiently, which serves as a key intermediate to the ready preparation of

Halichoblelide B (1) and C (2), novel macrolides with potent cytotoxicity against tumor cells in culture, have been isolated from a strain of Streptomyces hygroscopicus originally derived from the marine fish Halichoeres bleekeri, and their absolute stereostructures have been elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic analyses using 1D and 2D NMR techniques and chemical transformations. These compounds exhibited significant cytotoxicity against human cancer cell lines.

The addition of 4 eq of chloral to osmundalactone (4S,5R)-4 gave quantitative formation of the hemiacetal derivative (4S,5R)-8, which was treated with methane sulfonic acid to afford the intramolecular Micheal addition product (+)-(3S,4S,5R)-9 possessing a 3,4-cis-dihydroxy-d-lactone in 78% overall yield from (4S,5R)-4. The obtained (+)-(3S,4S,5R)-9 was subsequently converted to methyl D-digitoxoside (pyranoside) (12) in 13% overall yield and methyl D-digitoxoside (furanoside) (12) in 20% overall yield. The reaction of benzyl-osmundalactone (4R,5S)-3 and MeOH in the presence of Amberlyst A-26 as a basic catalyst gave 3,4-trans-δ-lactone (-)-(3S,4R,5S)-20 in 28% yield and 3,4-cis-d-lactone (-)-(3R,4R,5S)-21 in 45% yield. Dibal-H reduction of (-)-(3S,4R,5S)-20 followed by catalytic hydrogenation gave L-oleandrose (6) in 86% overall yield, while Dibal-H reduction of (-)-(3R,4R,5S)-21 followed by catalytic hydrogenation provided L-cymarose (7) in 85% overall yield.
