  • Title: Two approaches to the synthesis of 3-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-D-glucitol.
    Author: Kuszmann J, Medgyes G, Boros S.
    Journal: Carbohydr Res; 2004 Oct 04; 339(14):2407-14. PubMed ID: 15388355.
    Abstract:
    Glycosidation of 1,2:5,6-di-O-isopropylidene-D-glucose with tetra-O-acetyl-glucosyl bromide in 1:1 benzene-MeNO2 afforded approximately equal amounts of the 3-O-beta-D-glycoside and the rearranged 6-O-beta-D-glycoside, while in MeCN only the latter was formed. When tetra-O-acetyl-beta-thiophenylglucoside was used as donor in CH2Cl2 in the presence of NIS/TfOH as activator, the 6-O-beta-D-glycoside and a 3-O-orthoester were formed in a 1:2 ratio at -20 degrees C, while at 20 degrees C only the former could be isolated. Glycosidation of 1-O-benzoyl-2,4-O-benzylidene-5,6-O-isopropylidene-d-glucitol with tetra-O-acetyl-glucosyl bromide in MeCN in the presence of Hg(CN)2 afforded the corresponding 3-O-alpha- and 3-O-beta-glycopyranoside in a 1:4 ratio in MeCN and 1:5 in 1:1 benzene-MeNO2, respectively. When Hg(CN)2/HgBr2 was used as promoter, the corresponding orthoester was also formed. When tetra-O-acetyl-beta-thiophenylglucoside was used as donor, the 3-O-beta-anomer and the orthoester were obtained predominantly in a 3:2 ratio together with traces of the 3-O-alpha-glycoside. Both beta-glycosides could be smoothly converted into 3-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-D-glucitol.
