Abstract

C-Glycoside analogues of native glycans are useful molecular tools for medicinal chemistry and chemical biology due to their resistance to cellular glycoside hydrolases. We previously reported an α-selective direct C-glycosylation of 2-deoxy-β-glycosyl boronate through a Ni/photoredox-catalyzed stereoinvertive cross-coupling reaction. Here we report a complementary stereoretentive synthetic method for the preparation of β-C-glycosides from a similar boronate precursor through the addition of a C(sp2) anion followed by 1,2-migration of the glycosyl donor.

Key words

glycosides - boronates - 1,2-migration - Zweifel olefination - carbohydrates - cross-metathesis

  • 30 C-Vinylglycosides 11a and 11e; General Procedure A 1.0 M solution of vinylmagnesium bromide in THF (1.5 equiv) was added dropwise to a 0.1 M solution of the appropriate boronic ester 7 (1.0 equiv) in anhyd THF at –78 °C. The resulting mixture was stirred at –78 °C for 30 min, then warmed to r.t. and stirred for a further 30 min. The mixture was cooled to –78 °C and a 0.2 M solution of I2 (1.5 equiv) in MeOH was added dropwise from a cannula. The resulting mixture was stirred at –78 °C for 30 min, then warmed to r.t. and stirred for a further 30 min. The mixture was again cooled to –78 °C, and a 0.4 M solution of NaOMe (3.0 equiv) in MeOH was added. The mixture was then allowed to warm to r.t. and stirred for an additional 1 h. It was then diluted with EtOAc (20 mL) and washed with 1 M aq Na2S2O3 (10 mL) and sat. aq NH4Cl (10 mL). The aqueous layer was extracted with EtOAc (2 × 20 mL) and the combined organic layers were dried (MgSO4), filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by column chromatography (silica gel). 11a: Prepared by following the general procedure from 7a (80.5 mg, 0.152 mmol) as a colorless oil; yield: 30.3 mg (47%); [α]D 16 –14.2 (c 2.0, CHCl3). 1H NMR (500 MHz, CDCl3): δ = 5.79 (ddd, J = 17.4, 10.5, 5.8 Hz, 1 H), 5.24 (dt, J = 17.4, 1.2 Hz, 1 H), 5.13 (dt, J = 10.5, 1.2 Hz, 1 H), 4.15 (dd, J = 10.1, 4.9 Hz, 1 H), 3.96 (ddddd, J = 11.9, 5.8, 2.4, 1.2, 1.2 Hz, 1 H), 3.86 (dd, J = 10.1, 10.1 Hz, 1 H), 3.67 (ddd, J = 11.0, 8.2, 5.2 Hz, 1 H), 3.61 (dd, J = 8.9, 8.2 Hz, 1 H), 3.36 (ddd, J = 10.1, 8.9, 4.9 Hz, 1 H), 1.91 (ddd, J = 13.4, 5.2, 2.4 Hz, 1 H), 1.54 (ddd, J = 13.4, 11.9, 11.0 Hz, 1 H), 1.05 (s, 9 H), 1.00 (s, 9 H), 0.90 (s, 9 H), 0.12 (s, 3 H), 0.10 (s, 3 H). 13C NMR (125 MHz, CDCl3): δ = 137.56, 116.14, 79.23, 76.73, 75.01, 73.36, 67.03, 40.54, 27.72 (3 C), 27.21 (3 C), 25.95 (3 C), 22.86, 20.08, 18.29, –4.15, –4.60.

  • 33 Addition of 2 equivalents of MeMgBr appeared to afford a dimethylborane intermediate, but the desired product was not obtained; instead, a 1-OH hemiacetal was detected. It is probable that the intermediate underwent bromination to form the 1-bromo sugar, which was then converted into the hemiacetal S10 by hydrolysis. For details, see the Supporting Information.
