AbstractGenerally, glycosylation reactions activate an anomeric substituent in a glycosyl donor to generate an oxocarbenium ion intermediate. Here we report a novel glycosylation reaction triggered by the activation of a 2-O-substituted propargyl group in a 3,6-O-1,1′-[(ethane-1,2-diyl)bibenzene-2,2′-bis(methylene)]-β-thioglucoside. This reaction proceeds through a cationic Au(I)-mediated intramolecular migration of the anomeric substituent onto the alkyne moiety of the propargyl group, followed by α-attack by the hydroxy group in the glycosyl acceptor on the oxocarbenium ion. The migration of the anomeric group occurs selectively through a 6-exo-dig pathway. The 2-(phenylsulfanyl)prop-2-en-1-yl group produced during the glycosylation is removable under conditions similar to those used for removing an allyl group. This reaction will be developed for further applications in orthogonal oligosaccharide synthesis.

Abstract Chemical glycosylations occupy a central importance to synthesize tailor-made oligo- and polysaccharides of functional importance. Generation of the oxocarbenium ion or the glycosyl cation is the method of choice in order to form the glycosidic bond interconnecting a glycosyl moiety with a glycosyl/aglycosyl moiety. A number of elegant methods have been devised that allow the glycosyl cation formation in a fairly stream-lined manner to a large extent. The latent-active method provides a powerful approach in the protecting group controlled glycosylations. In this context, allyl glycosides have been developed to meet the requirement of latent-active reactivities under appropriate glycosylation conditions. Radical halogenation provides a newer route of activation of allyl glycosides to an activated allylic glycoside. Such an allylic halide activation subjects the glycoside reactive under acid catalysis, leading to the conversion to a glycosyl cation and subsequent glycosylation with a number of acceptors. The complete anomeric selectivity favoring the 1,2-trans-anomeric glycosides points to the possibility of a preferred conformation of the glycosyl cation. This article discusses about advancements in the selectivity of glycosylations, followed by delineating the allylic halogenation of allyl glycoside as a glycosylation method and demonstrates synthesis of a repertoire of di- and trisaccharides, including xylosides, with varied protecting groups.

We describe a simple and efficient method for the preparation of the trisaccharide GlcNAc(β1-4)-[Fuc(α 1-6)-]GlcNAc(β 1-) (1) and of the protected form of GlcNAc(β 1-4)-[Fuc(α 1-6)-]GlcNAc(β1-Asn) (2). The key intermediate is benzyl 4,6-benzylidene chitobioside 5 giving the desired trisaccharide by insitu anomerization–glycosylation reaction with 2,3,4-tribenzylfucosyl bromide. The benzyl glycoside in the trisaccharide 6 has been replaced by acetate and then bromine; this glycosylating agent was used to prepare methyl and 8-methoxycarbonyloctyl glycosides as well as isothiocyanate 12, in a series of reactions. The latter compound gave, on reaction with 1-benzyl N-benzyloxycarbonyl-L-asparate, compound 13 (a protected derivative of 2), which should serve as a synthon for syntheses of glycopeptides. Keywords: glycopeptide, synthesis; oligosaccharide, synthesis; chitobiosides; fucosylated chitobiosides; N-linked oligosaccharides.

We present a successful deoxygenation reaction of ortho-1,3-dithianylaryl(aryl)methanols which enables a selective removal of the secondary hydroxy group in presence of the 1,3-dithianyl moiety under reductive conditions. This reaction proceeds well with ZnI2/Na(CN)BH3 in dichloroethane or benzene for both unsubstituted and substituted aryls (by electron-rich groups). This is leading to formyl-protected diarylmethanes with potential application in the synthesis of new pharmaceuticals and optoelectronic materials. This synthetic approach gives an access to a wide variety of functionalized ortho-1,3-dithianylaryl(aryl)methanes in 26–95% yields and is recommended for the substrates containing sulfur atoms, for which transition metal-induced reactions fail.

Glycosyl donors have been experimentally shown to have a high tendency for acyl transfer to the alcohol nucleophile as a major side product during glycosylation reactions. Therefore, a neighbouring group participatory mechanism of glycosylation is explored using D-galactopyranose based donor having 2-O-acyl functionality by employing density functional theory. The reaction proceeds via galactopyranosyl dioxolenium ion as a stable intermediate, which leads to the formation of α-glycoside 4, orthoester (5 or 6) and acyl transfer 7 as side products. The mechanism of the stereoselective formation of β-glycoside is investigated. Moreover, all the possible intermediates and transition states have been explored.
