Glycosylation by sugar 1,2-O-(1-cyanobenzylidene) derivatives: influence of glycosyl-donor structure and promoter
摘要:
3,4,6-Tri-O-acetyl-1,2-O-(1-cyanobenzylidene)-alpha-D-galactopyranoses with differently substituted aromatic nuclei have been synthesised and used as glycosyl donors in reactions with the acceptors methyl 2,3,4-tri-O-acetyl-6-O-trityl-beta-D-galactopyranoside (11) and methyl 2,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-3-O-trityl-beta-D-galactopyranoside (12). The glycosylation of 11 gave only beta products. The efficiency and stereoselectivity of the glycosylations of 12 depend on the nature of the substituent in the aromatic ring. The stereoselectivity for the formation of 1,2-trans-glycosidic bonds was the highest with the p-methoxy-benzylidene derivative with triphenylmethylium triflate as the promoter.
