A number of modifications of the original Grignard C1 homologation of hexoses was examined, e.g. reactions of protected hexodialdo-1,5-pyranosides with benzyloxymethyllithium, transmetalation, precomplexation of the aldehydes. Some of the modif
Homologation of protected hexoses with Grignard C1 reagents

Derivatives of three stereoisomeric hexodialdo-1,5-pyranosides were reacted with four Grignard C1 reagents: methoxymethyl-, allyloxymethyl-, benzyloxymethyl, and dimethylphenylsilylmethyl-magnesium chlorides. Two stereoisomeric heptoses were obtained in each case in a good yield. The methyl alloside-derived heptosides were accompanied by C-5 inverted products. The addition of Grignard reagents to aldehydes 5-8 has been discussed in terms of parallel α- or β-chelated and Felkin-Anh transition states. It has been found that the silyl Grignard reagent 12 exhibits a strong preference for the formation of heptose derivatives of L-configuration at C-6. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.
