How O-Substitution of Sialyl Donors Affects Their Stereoselectivity
摘要:
The profound effect of substituents at C-5 of glycosyl sialosides on their stereoselectivity is well-known although the exact nature of this effect is somewhat less understood. Presented herein is a comparative study of a range of novel sialyl donors with various O-substituents. It is demonstrated that O-substituents at C-4 and C-7 may also have a significant effect on the reactivity of sialyl donors and on the stereoselectivity of chemical sialylation.

In spite of notable achievements for the synthesis of α-sialosides that have been made in the past decades, sialylation reactions often require low temperatures (–40 to –78 °C) and the use of acetonitrile as a solvent. Herein we report that a C-5 oxazolidinone sialosyl donor gives high yields andstereoselectivities in the presence of dichloromethane and/or tetrahydrofuran at 0 °C. Surprisingly, high
