obtained trifluoroacetimidates were more stable than the trichloro analogue and were easily purified by SiO2 column chromatography and/or distillation. The 3,3-sigmatropic rearrangement of allylic analogues, acid-catalyzed cyclization of the epoxy analogues and glycosylation of sugar analogues were studied comparing with their corresponding trichloroacetimidates. The trifluoroacetimidates were considerably

Trichloroacetimidates are displaced with thiols to form the corresponding sulfides without the need for an added acid or base by simply heating the reactants in refluxing THF. This operationally simple procedure provides the corresponding sulfides in excellent yields with only the formation of the neutral trichloroacetamide as the side product. The imidate may also be formed in situ, allowing for a direct method for the formation of sulfides from alcohols. This reaction provides a general method for the synthesis of a variety of sulfides from inexpensive and readily available alcohol starting materials. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Described is the synthesis of polyprenyl 2-deoxy-2-fluoro-beta-D-arabinofuranosyl phosphate derivatives, including an analog of decaprenyl P-D-arabinofuranosyl phosphate, the donor species used by the arabinosyltransferases involved in mycobacterial cell-wall biosynthesis. The targets were synthesized via a route involving the synthesis of a protected beta-D-arabinofuranosyl phosphate derivative, its coupling with a polyprenyl trichloroacetimidate, and then deprotection of the resulting product. The use of arabinofuranosyl phosphates with the monosaccharide hydroxyl groups protected as either silyl ethers or benzoate esters was explored. Although the coupling yields between the phosphate and polyprenyl trichloroacetimidates were comparable with either type of protecting group, access to the benzoyl-protected derivative was more efficient and therefore gave the products in higher overall yield.
