Direct C-Glycosylation by Indium-Mediated Alkynylation on Sugar Anomeric Position
摘要:
Indium-mediated alkynylation reaction was studied for the direct preparation of C-glycosides. Easily available starting sugar derivatives with an acetyl group at the anomeric position were tested as electrophiles toward alkynylindium reagents under Barbier conditions. Good yields and stereoselectivities were observed during the reaction. The alkynylation was applied to the synthesis of an alpha-(1 -> 6)-C-disaccharide analogue of isomaltoside.
The invention relates to a process to prepare a compound of the following formula (I): (I), in which P represents a protective group of a hydroxyl function which is a —COR

)alkyl, R represents a hydrogen atom or a protective group of a terminal alkyne, from mannose, comprising the following steps: (a) protecting the 5 hydroxyl groups of the mannose by a protective group P; (b) coupling the protected mannose obtained at step (a) with a compound of the following formula (II). The present invention also relates to a compound of formula (IIIa).
