Selective modification of the hydroxyl groups of sugars has been a long-standing challenge due to their proximate relative reactivity. Herein, we report a TMSOTf-catalyzed selective acetylation of the non-anomeric hydroxyl groups of several per-O-TMS-protected sugar substrates while leaving their anomeric group unaffected. In addition to standing versatile by itself, the anomeric O-TMS group left intact can be functionalized to afford key sugar precursors such as imidate donors, which could otherwise be synthesized via a stepwise anomeric deprotection-functionalization procedure.
Unexpected stereochemical outcome of activated 4,6-O-benzylidene derivatives of the 2-deoxy-2-trichloroacetamido-D-galacto series in glycosylation reactions during the synthesis of a chondroitin 6-sulfate trisaccharide methyl glycoside

The synthesis of methyl (β-D-glucopyranosyluronic acid)-(1→3)-(2-acetamido-2-deoxy-6-O-sulfonato-β-D-galactopyranosyl)-(1→4)-(β-D-glucopyranosid)uronate trisodium salt, a chondroitin 6-sulfate trisaccharide derivative, is described. Loss of stereocontrol in glycosylation reactions involving activated 4,6-O-benzylidene derivatives of the 2-deoxy-2-trichloroacetamido-D-galacto series and D-glucuronic acid-derived acceptors was highlighted. This drawback was overcome through the use of phenyl 3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-2-deoxy-1-thio-2-trichloroacetamido-β-D-galactopyranoside, which afforded the desired β-linked disaccharide derivative in high yield with an excellent stereoselectivity. This later was submitted to acid-catalyzed methanolysis, followed by benzylidenation, and condensed with methyl 2,3,4-tri-O-benzoyl-1-O-trichloroacetimidoyl-α-D-glucopyranuronate to afford the expected trisaccharide derivative. Subsequent transformation of the N-trichloroacetyl group into N-acetyl, mild acid hydrolysis, selective O-sulfonation at C-6 of the amino sugar moiety, and saponification afforded the target molecule as its sodium salt in high yield.
