Utilisation d'ylides du phosphore en chimie des sucres. XV. Synthèse de sucres à insaturation terminale

Treatment of 3-O-benzyl-1, 2-O-isopropylidene-3-O-methyl-α-D -xylo-pentodialdlo-1,4-furanose and 2,5-anhydro-3,4-O-isopropylidene-aldehydo-D -ribose with moderately stable and stable phosphonium ylides led to the corresponding terminal-unsaturated sugars obtained as a mixture of cis and trans isomers. The cis:trans ratios were determined by ¹H-NMR. and (or) GLC. They showed that steric factors play an important role in the control of the stereochemistry of these reactions.

The previously described one-carbon chain extension of aldehydo-sugars with methylthiomethylene-triphenylphosphorane has been successfully applied to an anhydro-aldehydo-sugar and two w-aldehydo-sugars. Some spectroscopic properties of the so obtained methylthiovinylic sugars are given.     

Utilisation d'ylides du phosphore en chimie des sucres. XII Dérivés du D-arabino-hexène-1-tétrol-3,4,5,6

The preparation of several kinds of derivatives of 1-substituted D -arabinc-hex-1-ene-3,4,5,6-tetrols is described. Some of these compounds, having a ‘pseudo-formyl’ group (? CH?CHCN, ? CH?CHSO₂CH₃) are ‘pseudo-aldehydo-sugars’. Their ability to react as aldehydo-sugars was examined in light of their ¹³C-NMR. spectra which provide information on their electron density at C(1) and C(2).     

Utilisation d'ylides du phosphore en chimie des sucres. XVIII Synthèse de furannoses à insaturation conjuguée. Communication préliminaire

Several sugars with conjugated unsaturation (dienes or α, β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds) have been synthesised by use of Wittig reactions. Keto-sugars bearing a carbonyl group α to a furanose ring are prone to undergo an elimination leading to conjugated unsaturated systems. This constitutes a novel kind of side-reaction in the application of Wittig reactions to carbonyl sugars. The synthesis of a new kind of acetylenic sugar is also described.     

Utilisation d'ylides du phosphore en chimie des sucres VII. Synthèse de sucres ramifiés des types «streptose» et «apiose». Communication préliminaire

A new high-yielding route to branched-chain sugars of the streptose or the apiose type having at the branching point a configuration epimeric with that which would be obtained by the classical synthesis using Grignard reagents is described. The main steps are the preparation of branched-chain unsaturated cyano sugars by reaction of cyanomethylene triphenylphosphorane with keto sugars and the cis-dihydroxylation (KMnO₄) of the so obtained cyano sugars. The cis and the trans isomers of a series of cyanovinylidenic sugars have been separated and the stereodependence of the long-range coupling constants in this class of compounds has been examined.     

Utilisation d'ylides du phosphore en chimie des sucres. XX. Synthèse de sucres acétyléniques et réarrangment d'intermédiaires carbénoïdes. Communication préliminaire

Two novel methods for the synthesis of terminal acetylenic sugars, both involving a chain extension by one carbon unit, are described. In the first procedure, an aldehydo-sugar is treated with dibromomethylenetriphenyl-phosphorane, then with n-butyllithium and finally with water. The second method involves an one-step reaction between an aldehydo-sugar and dimethyl diazomethylphosphonate. The acetylenic sugars obtained are valuable synthetic intermediates for the preparation of heterocyclic C-nucleosides by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions and some examples of syntheses of this type are described. Treatment of keto-sugars with dimethyl diazomethylphosphonate led to an intermediate carbenoid species which reacted by insertion into a C? H bond in one case and underwent nucleophilic attack by a methoxy group in a second case.     

Utilisation d'ylides du phosphore en chimie des sucres. XI. Synthèse des quatre didésoxy-3, 5-méthyl-3-pentoses parl'intermédiaire de sucres insaturés ramifiés

Treated with methylthiomethylenetriphenylphosphorane, 5-deoxy-1,2-O-iso-propylidene-β-D -threo- and -α-D -erythro-furanos-3-uloses led with good yields to a mixture of the cis-trans isomers of the corresponding methylthiovinylidenic sugars. There was no inversion of configuration at C(4) with the thero-furanosulose and a small one (7%) with its erythro isomer. These unsaturated branched-chain thio-sugars are useful synthetic intermediates. For examples, the desulfurization-hydrogenation (Raney Nickel) of each of these alkenes afforded in good yield two 3-deoxy-3-C-methyl-pentoses epimeric at C(3) and having the same configuration at C(4) as the starting alkenes. In all cases the isomer formed by attack from the less hindered face of the double bond was the preponderant one.     

Utilisation d'ylides du phosphore non stabilisés en chimie des sucres. II. Action du méthylthiométhylène-triphénylphosphorane sur les aldéhydo-surces

The action of methylthiomethylene-triphenylphosphorane on 2,3: 4,5-di-O-isopropylidene-Aldehydo--L-arabinose led with good yield to the corresponding unsaturated sugar which underwent electrophilic addition with a high regiospecificity. This provides a useful new route for a one-carbon chain extension in the carbohydrate series.     

Utlisation d'ylides du phosphore en chimie des sucres. XIII. Synthèse de dérivés des hydroxyméthyl-3-D-glucose et-D-galactose et de composés voisins

The treatment of the 1, 2:5, 6-di-O-isopropylidene-α-D -ribo- and xylo-hexofuranos-3-uloses with cyanomethylenetriphenylphosphorane led in each case, and in almost quantitative yields, to a pair of geometrical isomers of C-cyanomethylenic sugars having respectively the ribo and the xylo configurations. Permanganate oxidation of these branched-chain unsaturated sugars afforded the corresponding gem-hydroxyformyl compounds bearing the formyl group on the more hindered face of the molecule. The formyl group of these sugars is easily derivatized to an oximino or reduced to a hydroxymethyl. The configuration at the new asymmetric carbon has been established by comparison with known compounds or by synthesis of a C(3) epimer by the classical route involving a Grignard reagent.

The synthesis of branched-chain sugars of the gem-hydroxy-formyl and the gem-hydroxy-hydroxymethyl types is described. A 5-deoxy-1,2-O-isopropylidene-furanos-3-ulose is treated with cyanomethylene-triphenyl-phosphorane, yielding the two geometrical isomers of the corresponding branched-chain unsaturated sugar. Cis-dihydroxylation(KMnO₄) of these cyanomethylenic compounds affords stereoselectively and in high yield the gem-hydroxy-formyl branched chain sugars whose formyl group is on the more hindered face of the furanose ring. The hydroxymethyl analogues of the latter compounds are readily prepared by their borohydride reduction. This method constitutes a new general route to type A branched-chain sugars epimeric at the branching-point with the sugars which would have been obtained by the classical procedure involving Grignard reagents.

The cis and trans isomers of 3-deoxy-1,2:5,6-di-O-isopropylidene-3-C-methylthiomethylene-α-D -xylo- and -α-D -ribo-hexofuranoses have been prepared by treatment of 1,2:5,6-di-O-isopropylidene-α-D -xylo- and -α-D -ribo-hexofuran-3-uloses with methylthiomethylene-triphenylphosphorane. Configurations are assigned by NMR. A new type of ⁴J is described. Hydrogenation-desulfurization of the methylthiovinylic sugars affords 3-deoxy-3-methyl sugars of the D -allo, D -gulo, and D -galacto series. Derivatives of 3-deoxy-3-methyl-D -lyxose and 3-deoxy-3-methyl-D -ribose are prepared by chain-shortening of derivatives of the corresponding 3-deoxy-3-methyl-hexoses.

CαH?Cγ(Br)C?N, reacted with binucleophiles, gave rise to α, α, α, β or α, γ ring-forming reactions.

Etude théorique des déplacements chimiques du phosphore en RMN

Phosphorus chemical shifts have been evaluated by means of the perturbation theory using CNDO/S wave functions in phosphine, phosphite, phosphonate and phosphate derivatives. The necessity of introducing 3d orbitals of phosphorus and of using Z_eff3d as an adjustable parameter for each family of compounds is shown. Calculated values agree with experimental ones.     

Préparation de dérivés de sucres acétyléniques terminaux et d'acides ynuroniques par réaction de Wittig. Note de laboratoire

Synthesis of Terminal Acetylenic Sugars Derivatives and Ynuronic Acids Derivatives by Use of a Wittig Reaction The method described for the preparation of terminal acetylenic sugars presents two advantages over earlier procedures: no new asymmetric center is created and the chain can be extended by one or more C-atoms. The method also allows preparation of ynuronic acids. The aldehydosugars derivatives 1–7 gave in good to excellent yields the corresponding gem-dibromoenoses 8–14 from which either the terminal acetylenic sugars derivatives 15–21 or the ynuronic acids 22–24 were easily prepared. A few examples of 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions (leading to 28–30 ) with these acetylenic sugar derivatives are also described.     

Oxydations et halogénations régiosélectives et réactions carbéniques de dérivés de sucres portant un groupement thioéther

Regioselective Oxidations, Regioselective Halogenations and Carbene Reactions of Sugar Derivatives Bearing a Thioether Group Regioselective stoechiometrically controlled procedures are described for the oxidation of thiosugars either at the sulfur atom (to sulfoxides or sulfones) or at a hydroxymethylene group (to ketosugars). Ruthenium tetraoxide reacted at both sites. Chloration (SO₂Cl₂) of β-ketothioether sugar derivative 3 took place exclusively at C(6). Evidence is given that a chlorosulfonium intermediate C was formed when the dichloroketothiosugar derivative 6 was treated with SO₂Cl₂. The carbene generated from the tosylhydrazone 16 rearranged to the enoses 17–20 , the migrating group coming in equal proportions from C(4) and C(6). Some stereochemical aspects of these reactions are discussed.

Twenty-nine α,β-(1 → 3) and (1 → 4) or β-(1 → 6) disaccharides, in the glucose series were analysed by electron impact mass spectrometry. In addition to the known mechanism, a few ¹³C labelled compounds led us to suggest that the ion c was formed from the reducing unit B and the C-1′ of the non-reducing residue A, while A was the starting point for rearrangement and fragmentation processes.
