presence of zinc acetate. The β-stereoselectivity is independent of the neighboring group at 2-O-substitution of sugar substrates. Therefore, this provides a particularly useful method for the preparation of manno-β-C-glycosides. The epimerization is likely initiated by the formation of Zn-enolate that is stabilized by intramolecular chelation to the pyranose ring-oxygen to form a syn chair-boat structure
α-C-糖苷的 2'-醛和 2'-酮,包括
葡糖、半
乳糖和
甘露糖系列,在碱性条件下和在
醋酸锌的存在。β-立体选择性与糖底物 2-O-取代的相邻基团无关。因此,这为制备
甘露糖-β-C-糖苷提供了一种特别有用的方法。差向异构化可能是由 Zn-烯醇化物的形成引发的,Zn-烯醇化物通过与
吡喃糖环-氧的分子内螯合而稳定以形成合成椅船结构。由于 Zn-O 配位产生的活化,C1-O 键发生裂变,导致
吡喃糖环打开,随后自发地发生构象变化。
