A concise synthesis of beta-D-fructofuranosyl alpha-D-galactopyranoside (2), and beta-D-fructofuranosyl alpha-D-mannopyranoside (3) is described. Inversion of the C-3 alpha-hydroxy group of alpha-D-galactopyranosyl and alpha-D-mannopyranosyl beta-D-psicofuranosides 10 and 11 via oxidation and stereoselective reduction furnished the corresponding beta-D-fructofuranosides in excellent yields.
Chemical synthesis of β-d-psicofuranosyl disaccharides
摘要:
Disaccharides composed of a beta-D-psicofuranosyl unit were prepared by the glycosylation reaction of monosaccharide acceptors including three 23,4,6-tetra-O-protected hexopyranoses with a D-psicofuranosyl benzyl phthalate derivative (4). A beta-D-psicofuranosidic bond was formed by the TMSOTf-promoted reaction with high selectivity. Removal of the O-protecting groups from the resulting a-D-hexopyranosyl beta-D-psicofuranosides furnished the first chemical synthesis of alpha-D-gluco-, alpha-D-galacto-, and et-D-mannopyranosyl beta-D-psicofuranosides. The common beta-D-psicofuranosyl donor 4 was derived efficiently from D-psicose in five steps. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
