Abstract: | The appropriately substituted 5-O-tosyl derivative (1), easily prepared from 1,2-O-isopropylidene-alpha-d-xylofuranose, serves as a useful precursor for the preparation of highly condensed cyclic carbohydrates. The synthesis involves a first cyclization of the 5-O-tosyl sugar derivative 1 to a highly reactive cyclic enamine, which subsequently undergoes the nucleophilic attack of a bifunctional reagent X(CH2)nZ in a regio- and stereospecific way. Finally, a spontaneous cyclization step allows the formation of a stereochemically defined extra ring, fused to the sugar backbone. The functionalization and size of this ring can be varied by the proper choice of the bifunctional reagent. X-ray diffraction analysis and intensive NMR studies with one of these carbohydrates were performed to highlight the strained nature of these compounds. |
