Synthesis of Urea-Tethered Neoglycoconjugates and Pseudooligosaccharides in Water
摘要:
A novel approach to the synthesis of urea glycosides in aqueous media has been explored. Steyermark's glucopyranosyl oxazolidinone was found to be a good synthon for anchoring glucosyl moieties onto amines and thiols. The present method was successfully applied to establish a new route for the synthesis of urea-tethered neoglycoconjugates and pseudooligosaccharides in water.
The one step process, involving reactions between urea and protecting group free d-glucose, N-acetyl-d-glucosamine or d-xylose in acidic aqueous solution, furnishes the corresponding β-urea glycosides.
