A Versatile Route to l-Hexoses: Synthesis of l-Mannose and l-Altrose
摘要:
[GRAPHICS]An efficient route for the synthesis of orthogonally protected L-sugars has been opened up, starting from the heterocyclic homologating agent 1 and 2,3-O-isopropylidene-L-glyceraldehyde (2). Our synthetic path enables the synthesis of a 2,3-unsaturated-L-pyranoside, which can be suitably functionalized to afford the desired L-hexoses. In this paper, we report the synthesis of L-manno- and L-altro-pyranosides. Moreover, this strategy may be used to prepare all eight sugars and their derivatives in either enantiomeric form.

[4+2] Cycloaddition of 1,3-dienes to glycolaldehyde derivatives, leading to 5,6-dihydro-2H-pyrans, was effected by high pressure (10 kbar) in the presence of Eu(fod)3 (2%). Enantioselective version of the reaction was also studied.
The high-pressure [4+2]cycloaddition of 1-methoxybuta-1,3-diene to the glycolaldehyde-derived heterodienophiles, catalyzed by chiral metallosalen complexes
A high-pressure (ca. 10 kbar) reaction of 1-methoxybuta-1,3-diene 1 with variously O-protected glycolaldehydes 2, catalyzed by the chiral (salen)Cr(III)Cl 4a–d and 5 or (salen)Co(II) 6a–f and 7 complexes, has been studied. The best results were obtained for tert-butyldimethylsilyloxyacetaldehyde 2a. The reaction afforded, in good yield (up to 90%) and with very good diastereoselectivity (up to 92%)
