摘要:
The reactivity of N-1-alkylsulfonyl- and N-1-arylsulfonyl-2',3',5'-tri-O-acetylimosine with benzylamine and with (NH3)-N-15, regarding the attack on C2, has been shown to be in the order CF3SO2 (Tf) > 2,4-(NO2)(2)C6H3SO2 (DNs) >= 4-NO2C6H4SO2 (pNs) approximate to C6F5SO2 (PFBs) > 2-NO2C6H4SO2 (Ns) >> CH3SO2 (Ms) > 4-CH3C6H4SO2 (Ts) > 2,4,6-(CH3)(3)C6H2SO2 (MtS)- In spite of its intermediate reactivity, the Ns group is the most appropriate, since in this case the formation of by-products is minimised during the ring-opening and ring-closing steps of the process. Another advantage of the Ns group is thus disclosed. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
