This work reports stannous chloride (SnCl2)-catalyzed regio-/site-selective acylation with unusually broad substrate scope. In addition to 1,2- and 1,3-diols and glycosides containing cis-vicinal diol, the substrate scope also includes glycosides without cis-vicinal diol. For such a substrate scope, usually, only methods using stoichiometric amounts of organotin reagents can lead to the same protection pattern with high selectivities and highly isolated yields (84-97% in most cases). Therefore, SnCl2, as a low toxicity and extremely cheap reagent, should be the best catalyst for regio-/site-selective acylation compared with any previously reported reagents. This journal is

A diisopropylethylamine (DIPEA)-triggered, self-catalyzed, regioselective acylation of carbohydrates and diols is presented. The hydroxyl groups can be acylated by the corresponding anhydride in MeCN in the presence of a catalytic amount of DIPEA. This method is comparatively green and mild as it uses less organic base compared with other selective acylation methods. Mechanistic studies indicate that DIPEA reacts with the anhydride to form a carboxylate ion, and then the carboxylate ion could catalyze the selective acylation through a dual H-bonding interaction.
Highly Efficient Selective Benzylation of Carbohydrates Catalyzed by Iron(III) with Silver Oxide and Bromide Anion as Co-catalysts

A highly efficient, green, and regioselective method for the benzylation of diols and polyols was developed. With the use of Ag2O (0.6 equiv.) and tetrabutylammonium bromide (0.1 equiv.) as co-catalysts, the iron(III)-catalyzed benzylation reaction proceeded to completion at 40 °C within 2–3 h and gave the products in high yields with high regioselectivities. A mechanism involving the principle of enhanced basicity of Ag2O by soft anions was proposed.
