Trimethylsilyldiazomethane (TMS-CHN2) reacts readily with hetaryl thioketones to give sterically crowded 2-trimethylsilyl-4,4,5,5-tetrahetaryl-1,3-dithiolanes with complete regioselectivity at −75 °C as well as at rt. Thiofluorenone, a relatively stable and highly reactive aryl thioketone, yields upon treatment with TMS-CHN2 at −60 °C the corresponding 1,3,4-thiadiazoline. This unstable cycloadduct undergoes decomposition at ca. −45 °C and the silylated thiocarbonyl S-methanide generated thereby is trapped with complete regioselectivity by aryl or hetaryl thioketones forming also sterically crowded 2-trimethylsilyl-1,3-dithiolanes. The obtained 1,3-dithiolanes, by treatment with an equimolar amount of TBAF in a one-pot procedure, are converted in high yields into hetaryl/aryl-substituted ethenes or dibenzofulvenes, respectively, via a cycloreversion reaction of the intermediate 1,3-dithiolane carbanion. The presented protocol offers a new, highly efficient approach to tetrasubstituted ethenes and dibenzofulvenes bearing aryl and/or hetaryl substituents.

Abstract A highly efficient and stereoselective approach to the synthesis of biologically important and complex α-glycosyl phosphosaccharides (GPSs) has been disclosed, employing direct gold(I)-catalyzed glycosylation of the weakly nucleophilic phosphoric acid acceptors. The broad substrate scope is demonstrated with more than 45 examples, including glucose (Glc), xylose, glucouronatose, galactose (Gal), mannose (Man), rhamnose (Rha), fucose (Fuc), 2-N3-2-dexoxymannose (ManN3), 2-N3-2-dexoxyglucose (GlcN3), 2-N3-2-dexoxygalactose (GalN3) and unnatural carbohydrates. Moreover, the glycosyl phosphotriester prepared herein was successfully applied to the one-pot synthesis of a GPS from Leishmania donovani, and an effective preparation of a trisaccharide diphosphate of GPS fragments from Hansenula capsulate via iterative elongation strategy is realized.
