Sulfuric acid-catalyzed acetolysis of anomeric ethyl 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-d-glucopyranosides: kinetics and mechanism
摘要:
Kinetics of the acetolysis and concomitant anomerization of ethyl 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-alpha- and -beta-D-glucopyranosides in a mixture of acetic anhydride, acetic acid, and sulfuric acid have been studied. The progress of the reactions was followed by gas chromatography, and the rate constants of the partial reactions were calculated on the basis of the time-dependent product distributions obtained. The mechanisms of the reactions are discussed.
Facile exchange of glycosyl S,S-acetals to their O,O-acetals and preparation of glycofuranosides from acyclic glycosyl S,S-acetals under metal-free reaction conditions in the presence of 1,3-dibromo-5,5-dimethylhydantoin
摘要:
Exchange of acyclic glycosyl dithioacetals to their O,O-acetals has been achieved by a generalized reaction protocol mediated by 1,3-dibromo-5,5-dimethylhydantoin under mild, metal-free and neutral conditions. This methodology has been extended to the synthesis of alkyl glycofuranosides. (C) 2004 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
