The X-ray diffraction patterns, 13C CP MAS NMR spectra, and powder X-ray diffraction analyses were obtained for selected p-nitrophenyl glycosides: α- and β-d-galactopyranosides (1 and 2), α- and β-d-glucopyranosides (3 and 4), and α- and β-d-mannopyranosides (5 and 6). In X-ray diffraction analysis of 1 and 2, characteristic shortening and lengthening of selected bonds were observed in the molecules of 1 due to anomeric effect, and in the crystal lattice of 1 and 2, hydrogen bonds of complex network were detected. In the crystal asymmetric unit of 1 there were two independent molecules, whereas in 2 there was one molecule. For 1 and 3-6 the number of resonances in solid-state 13C NMR spectra exceeded the number of the carbon atoms in the molecules, while for 2 there were distinct singlet resonances in its solid-state NMR spectrum. Furthermore, the powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) performed for 1-3 and 5 revealed that 1, 3, and 5 existed as single polymorphs proving that the doublets observed in appropriate solid-state NMR spectra were connected with two non-equivalent molecules in the crystal asymmetric unit. On the other hand 2 existed as a mixture of two polymorphs, one of them was almost in agreement with the calculated pattern obtained from XRD (the difference in volumes of the unit cells), and the subsequent unknown polymorph existed in small amounts and therefore it was not observed in solid-state NMR measurements.
Applications of Shoda's reagent (DMC) and analogues for activation of the anomeric centre of unprotected carbohydrates

2-Chloro-1,3-dimethylimidazolinium chloride (DMC, herein also referred to as Shoda's reagent) and its derivatives are useful for numerous synthetic transformations in which the anomeric centre of unprotected reducing sugars is selectively activated in aqueous solution. As such unprotected sugars can undergo anomeric substitution with a range of added nucleophiles, providing highly efficient routes to a range of glycosides and glycoconjugates without the need for traditional protecting group manipulations. This mini-review summarizes the development of DMC and some of its derivatives/analogues, and highlights recent applications for protecting group-free synthesis.
Scope of the DMC mediated glycosylation of unprotected sugars with phenols in aqueous solution

Activation of reducing sugars in aqueous solution using 2-chloro-1,3-dimethylimidazolinium chloride (DMC) and triethylamine in the presence of para-nitrophenol allows direct stereoselective conversion to the corresponding 1,2-Trans para-nitrophenyl glycosides without the need for any protecting groups. The reaction is applicable to sulfated and phosphorylated sugars, but not to ketoses or uronic acids or their derivatives. When applied to other phenols the product yield was found to depend on the pKa of the added phenol, and the process was less widely applicable to 2-Acetamido sugars. For 2-Acetamido substrates an alternative procedure in which the glycosyl oxazoline was pre-formed, the reaction mixture freeze-dried, and the crude product then reacted with an added phenol in a polar aprotic solvent system with microwave irradiation proved to be a useful simplification.
