Anodic coupling reactions and the synthesis of C-glycosides

A convenient, two-step procedure has been developed for converting sugar derivatives into C-glycosides containing a masked aldehyde functional group. The chemistry takes advantage of an anodic coupling reaction between an electron-rich olefin and an alcohol. The sequence works for the formation of both furanose and pyranose derivatives if less polarized vinyl sulfide derived radical cation intermediates are used. With more polarized enol ether derived radical cations, the cyclizations work best for the formation of furanose derivatives where the rate of five-membered ring formation precludes elimination reactions triggered by the radical cation.

Stereoselective thallium-induced ring contraction of glycals

Various glycals, treated with TI(NO3)3·3H2O under mild conditions in an acetonitrile-methanol solvent mixture, underwent ring contraction in a stereoselective fashion, affording stable acetal products.

Stereoselective synthesis of tetrahydrofurans and linear methyl enol- ethers from glycals

The O-benzyl derivatives of 1,5-anhydro-2-deoxy-D-arabino-hex-1-enitol (D-glucal, 1), 1,5-anhydro-2,6-dideoxy-L-arabino-hex-1-enitol (L-rhamnal, 7), and 1,5-anhydro-2-deoxy-D-lyxo-hex-1-enitol (D-galactal, 9), underwent stereoselectively a ring contraction by treatment with thallium(III) nitrate (TTN) in MeOH, giving respectively the dimethylacetal derivatives of 3,4,6- tri-O-benzyl-2,5-anhydro-D-mannose, 3,4-di-O-benzyl-6-deoxy-2,5-anhydro-L- mannose (8) and 3,4,6-tri-O-benzyl-2,5-anhydro-D-talose (10). Conversely, the protected glycals 1, 7 and 9, underwent the ring opening reaction by action of the TTN-NaBH4 reagent in MeOH, providing the enantiomerically pure methyl enol-ethers 3,4,6-tri-O-benzyl-2-deoxy-1-O-methyl-D-arabino-hex-1-enitol, 3,4-di-O-benzyl-2,6-dideoxy-1-O-methyl-L-arabino-hex-1-enitol and 3,4,6-tri- O-benzyl-2-deoxy-1-O-methyl-D-lyxo-hex-1-enitol. The perbenzylated glycosyl- glycals, such as 3,6-di-O-benzyl-4-O-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-benzyl-β-D- glucopyranosyl)-1,5-anhydro-2-deoxy-D-arabino-hex-1-enitol (cellobial) (16), 3,6-di-O-benzyl-4-O-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-benzyl-β-D-galactopyranosyl)-1,5- anhydro-2-deoxy-D-arabino-hex-1-enitol (lactal) (19) and 3,4-di-O-benzyl-6- O-(2, 3,4,6- tetra- O-benzyl- α-D-galactopyranosyl)- 1,5- anhydro-2-deoxy- D-arabino-hex-1-enitol (melibial) (22), showed the same reactivity as the corresponding glycals by reaction with TTN in MeOH, resulting selectively in the ring contracted compounds at the glycal moiety. The reaction with TTN- NaBH4 in MeOH, carried out on 16, 19 and 22, led to the formation of the open chain derivatives at the glycal site.
