Traceless Chiral Auxiliaries for the Allene Ether Nazarov Cyclization
摘要:
The key stereochemical factors that determine transfer of asymmetry from the chiral auxiliary to the cyclopentenone in the allene ether version of the Nazarov reaction have been elucidated. On the basis of the new insights into the mechanism, two highly effective chiral auxiliaries were designed and prepared.
α-Selective synthesis of 2-deoxy-glycosides and disaccharides
摘要:
A metal-free catalytic method for the synthesis of 2-deoxy glycosides and disaccharides has been developed using stable 2-deoxy glucosyl and galactosyl acetate donors. They could react with a variety of acceptors in the presence of catalytic amount of TMSOTf at 0 degrees C to form glycosides, glycoconjugates, and disaccharides with excellent alpha-selectivity (> 19:1) and yields (up to 99%) in a short time (0.5 h). With this expedient method, several new compounds against human K562 and SMMC7721 cell lines were obtained and tested with in vitro antitumor bioactivities.
