Abstract

We report herein the first example of a Staudinger-aza-Wittig-type reaction on a substituted furanoside in which a β-azido glyco-α-aminonitrile was converted into fused iminopyrrolidines in good yields, and the following hydrolysis gave the corresponding conformationally restricted glycoamino acids.

To a solution of compound 2 (0.20 g, 0.85 mmol) in 10 mL of THF-H2O (4:1) was added 0.25 g (0.93 mmol) of PPh3. After stirring overnight at r.t., the reaction mixture was evaporated and extracted with Et2O and H2O. The aqueous layer was evaporated to give 0.16 g (89%) of 8 as a slight yellow syrup; [α]D 20 20 (c 0.17, CHCl3).
