Solvent-Free Glycosylation from per-O-Acylated Donors Catalyzed by Methanesulfonic Acid

The huge importance of carbohydrates and their derivatives in biomedical and industrial applications call for the development of streamlined and sustainable procedures for their synthetic elaboration. Here reported a novel glycosylation method based on direct activation of readily available per-O-acylated (acetylated or benzoylated) donors, promoted under air by methanesulfonic acid as a cheap and green catalyst in the absence of any solvent. Besides the beneficial avoidance of toxic and polluting organic solvents, these conditions were found critical for activating such poorly reactive donors with a very small catalyst loading (only 5 mol %), instead of stoichiometric Lewis acid promoters typically employed. Desired glycosides were quickly obtained, in most cases with high 1,2-trans stereoselectivity. Other main advantages over reported glycosylations with similar donors are the limited stoichiometric excess of the acceptor (or the donor), the easy applicability and low cost of the procedure and the wide target scope, also covering the synthesis of disaccharides and other non-trivial glycosides with applicable potential.

AuCl3-AgOTf promoted O-glycosylation using anomeric sulfoxides as glycosyl donors at room temperature

Activation of sulfoxide as glycosyl donors using AuCl3/AgOTf reagent system has been described. Under optimal reaction conditions, both armed and disarmed glycosyl sulfoxide donors were found to react with a range of primary, secondary, and tertiary alcohol acceptors, and sugar derived glycosyl acceptors to afford the corresponding glycosides in moderate to good yields with predictable selectivity. The reactions are quick (20–60 min), facile at room temperature and the reactions conditions tolerate acid sensitive groups.

Sulfonated graphene oxide as highly efficient catalyst for glycosylation

Heterogeneous sulfonated graphene oxide for the first time has been used as a green and efficient catalyst for atom-economic glycosylation of unprotected, unactivated glycosyl donors or 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetylglycosyltrichloroacetimidate with various accep

AuCl3- and AuCl3-Phenylacetylene-Catalyzed Glycosylations by Using Glycosyl Trichloroacetimidates

Glycosylations of armed and disarmed trichloroacetimidate-based glycosyl donors were carried out by using the AuCl3-phenylacetylene relay catalyst system. The effectiveness of this catalytic system was also compared with that of using AuCl3 alone as a catalyst. Glycosylations with these catalysts proceeded efficiently at room temperature within 5-45 min. Excellent diastereoselectivity was obtained for the glycosylation of 2-O-acetyl-protected disarmed glycosyl donors, whereas armed glycosyl trichloroacetimidates gave rise to a mixture of anomeric glycosides. Acid-sensitive nucleophiles such as Fmoc-serine tert-butyl ester or Fmoc-threonine tert-butyl ester successfully underwent the glycosylations, albeit in moderate yields, under mild conditions at room temperature. We have reported a convenient room temperature protocol that employs AuCl3 and phenylacetylene as a catalyst system to carry out the glycosylation of glycosyl trichloroacetimidates. The effectiveness of this relay catalyst system was also compared with that of using AuCl3 alone to catalyze the glycosylations.

Solvent-free mechanochemical glycosylation in ball mill

Starting from acetobromosugars and an alcohol (alkyl/substituted alkyl/akenyl/alkynyl/glyceryl/cyclohexyl/steryl) various O-glycosides have been prepared mechanochemically under solvent-free conditions employing a planetary ball mill in the presence of metal carbonates (environmentally benign or otherwise) as promoters. The method was proven to be mild and efficient and applicable on preparative scale for the synthesis of various mono- and disaccharide glycosides. 4-Pentenyl glycoside so produced could, in four successive reactions in the same pot, be converted in high isolated yields into triazole-substituted pentyl glycoside that can find application in the area of medicinal chemistry.

Inhibitory effects of perillosides A and C, and related monoterpene glucosides on aldose reductase and their structure-activity relationships.

Monoterpene glucosides, perillosides A and C, obtained from the leaves of Perilla frutescens, were found to be inhibitors of aldose reductase (EC 1.1.1.21) which is considered to be a key enzyme in diabetic complications such as cataract. The apparent typ
