A new and efficient preparation of diversely protected 2-azido-2-deoxyglycopyranosides from the corresponding glycals is described. The glycals are first transformed into protected phenyl 2-azido-2-deoxy-selenoglycopyranosides by azido-phenylselenylation. Two procedures were employed according to the protecting groups present: sodium azide and diphenyldiselenide in the presence of (diacetoxyiodo)benzene for peracetylated glycals (Procedure A) or trimethylsilyl azide and tetra-n-butylammonium fluoride in the presence of N-phenylselenophthalimide for perbenzylated glycals (Procedure B). A gluco–manno mixture (90%) is obtained from protected d-glucal whereas only the galacto isomer is formed from protected d-galactal (75%). The compatibility of the second procedure with one free hydroxyl group and a variety of protecting groups was verified with 1,5-anhydro-2-deoxy-3,4-O-isopropylidene-d-lyxo-hex-1-enitol and its 6-O-acetyl, 6-O-allyl, 6-O-benzyl, and 6-O-tert-butyldimethylsilyl derivatives as well as with 1,5-anhydro-4,6-O-benzylidene-2-deoxy-d-lyxo-hex-1-enitol and its 3-O-acetyl and 3-O-benzyl derivatives, which were transformed into phenyl 2-azido-2-deoxy-α-d-selenogalactopyranoside derivatives in good yield. In the second step, hydrolysis of these selenoglycosides afforded diversely protected glycopyranoses in high yield. Peracetylated derivatives were hydrolyzed in the presence of N-iodosuccinimide, whereas mercury trifluoroacetate was employed for 3,4-O-isopropylidene, 4,6-O-benzylidene, and perbenzylated derivatives. In some cases the two steps can be carried out without isolation of the intermediate selenoglycoside. Keywords: glycals, 2-azido-2-deoxygalactopyranose, 2-azido-2-deoxyglucopyranose, selenoglycosides.

1. The teichoic acid from walls of Staphylococcus lactis I3 is readily degraded in dilute alkali. 2. Degradation proceeds by selective hydrolysis of that phosphodiester group attached to an alcoholic hydroxyl group of the N-acetylglucosamine and gives a repeating unit in high yield. 3. Further studies on a different repeating unit isolated by partial acid hydrolysis have shown that the glycerol diphosphate is attached to the 4-hydroxyl group of the N-acetylglucosamine and not to the 3-hydroxyl group as was proposed earlier. 4. The susceptibility towards hydrolysis by alkali of other structural types of teichoic acid has been examined and found to vary markedly according to their structure.

AbstractA concise method for a stereocontrolled synthesis of a set of selectively protected disaccharides is reported. Coupling of the donor 11 onto acceptors 23 and 24, promoted by trimethylsilyl triflate-N-iodosuccinimide (TMSOTf-NIS), generated the disaccharides 25 and 26. Under typical conditions, condensation of the fully protected donor 12 onto acceptors 23 and 24 produced the disaccharides 27 and 28. The building blocks 25–28 were prepared in moderate yields having exclusive β-stereoselectivity. A unique pattern of protecting groups distinguished clearly between positions to be sulfated and functional groups remaining as free hydroxyl groups. Acetyl and/or levulinoyl esters temporarily protected the positions to be sulfated, while benzyl ethers were used for permanent protection. The anomeric positions were protected as allyl ethers, whereas the 4′-positions were masked as p-methoxybenzyl (PMB) ethers. The orthogonality of the PMB and allyl groups can then be used for further elongation of the chain by recurrent deprotection and activation steps. The hydroxyl group, OH-6, of glucosamine moieties was protected as a TBDPS ether to avoid oxidation. A five-step deprotection/sulfonation sequence was applied to the disaccharide 27 to generate the corresponding sulfated [β-D-GlcUA-2-OSO3Na-(1→4)-β-D-Glc pNAc]-(1→O-Pro) 34.

The synthesis of 6-aminoisomannide is easily achieved starting from the renewable, inexpensive and commercially available isosorbide, in 66% overall yield. A biocatalysed highly regioselective acetylation of the 3-endo hydroxyl group of isosorbide was followed by the stereospecific interconversion of the 6-exo hydroxyl group into azido group, through reaction with trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride followed by nucleophilic displacement of the triflate group by sodium azide. Finally, reduction of the azido group and deacetylation of the 3-hydroxy group were performed one pot by using LiAlH4.

Cyclic and acyclic bis-phosphonium salts with a two-carbon bridge are smoothly cleaved to phosphines in high yield by potassium cyanide in dimethyl sulphoxide. Evidence is presented that the reaction proceeds by an elimination-addition sequence. An elimination reaction also occurs when sodium methoxide, sodium azide, sodium acetate, and triethylamine react with ethane-1,2-bis(tri-phenylphosphonium) dibromide. ��� In a novel reaction, triphenylphosphine is converted into its oxide by a mixture of sodium azide and dimethyl sulphoxide.

Experiments with various N-acylamino acid 2,4,6-trimethylbenzyl esters have shown that the ester group is cleaved selectively by cold trifluoroacetic acid without affecting benzyloxycarbonyl, formyl, or phthaloyl amino-protecting groups present. The possible value of this selective behaviour in peptide syntheses where the use of alkaline conditions would be detrimental is illustrated by the synthesis of certain dipeptide derivatives.

Treatment of cyclododecane-r-1,c-5,c-9-triyl tris(p-toluenesulphonate) with sodium azide in dimethyl-formamide at 100� for 6 h gave the corresponding cis,cis-triazide which upon hydrogenation or reduction with lithium aluminium hydride gave cyclododecane-r-1,c-5,c-9-triamine, isolated as the tris-salicylidene derivative. Acid hydrolysis of this, removal of the salicylaldehyde, and treatment of the aqueous solution with sodium carbonate and 2,3-dimethoxybenzoyl chloride gave r-1,c-5,c- 9-tris(2,3-dimethoxybenzamido)cyclododecane. ��� Treatment of (E,E,E)-cyclododeca-1,5,9-triene with an excess of acetonitrile and sulphuric acid at room temperature for three days gave 18% of (E,E)-1-acetamidocyclododeca-4,8-diene; no di- or tri-amides were isolated.


The diquinones have been but little investigated, and as they contain two condensed highly active quinonid systems it is to be anticipated that they should be capable of interesting intramolecular reactions. When heated to 210-215º, 4 : 4'-dimethoxydiquinone is rapidly converted into a red crystalline isomeride (yield, 90%), soluble in alkali with an intense blue colour, and yielding a mono-acetate indicating the occurrence of a free hydroxyl group. Two hydrogen atoms are taken up on reduction, and the phenolic product yields a triacetate and a trimethyl ether. It follows that of the four carbonyl oxygens of 4 : 4'-dimethoxydiquinone, one has been converted into a hydroxyl group, and another which does not exhibit any functional activity, is probably present as ethereal oxygen. These results led to formula (III) as representing the product of rearrangement.

AbstractTetramethylsilane reacts with HN(SO2Cl)2 (1) in a complex manner, the nature of the product mixture depending strongly on the reaction conditions. Refluxing 1 with TMS in excess, using CH2Cl2 as a diluent, affords in high yield the new compound HN(SO2Cl)(SO2Me) (2) according to eq. (3). Hydrolysis of the crystal-line, moisture sensitive compound 2 is described by eq. (4).
