Dérivés C-glycosyliques XXIII. Radicaux libres stables dérivés de sucre Communication préliminaire

Treated with 2,3-dimethyl-2,3-bis-(hydroxylamino)-butane, aldehydo-dialdofuranoses ( 1 ) gave a mixture of two compounds: a 1,3-dihydroxyimidazolidine ( 2 ) and a 1-hydroxyimidazoline ( 3 ). Oxidation (PbO₂) of compounds 3 gave stable free radicals having the structure of 2-C-Glycosyl-4,4,5,5-tetramethylimidazolines 1-oxyl ( 4 ), whereas 2-C-Glycosyl-4,4,5,5-tetramethylimidazolines 3-oxide 1-oxyl ( 5 ) were formed by oxidation of 2 . The ESR. spectra of compounds 4 and 5 establish the structure of the imidazoline part of these radicals and provide informations on the sugar moiety.

Deoxy-hydroxylamino-sugar Derivatives and Corresponding Diglycosylnitroxides Radicals A number of sugar aldonitrones, including C,N-diglycosylnitrones, and ketonitrones have been treated with Grignard reagents or cyanide anion leading to the corresponding deoxy-hydroxylamino-sugars. On oxidation (air, H₅IO₆ or PbO₂), these compounds gave the corresponding nitroxide radicals whose ESR. spectra are reported. Analogues of disaccharides, in which the interglycosidic O-bridge is replaced by a hydroxyimino group, have been obtained by reacting a partially blocked sugar bearing a free hemiacetal group either with a deoxy-hydroxylaminosugar or with hydroxylamine, followed by reaction with an aldehydosugar and a reducing agent (NaBH₄). These reactions represents the key synthetic steps for the oligosaccharide-type synthesis of deoxy-hydroxyimino-oligosaccharides. Their oxidation yielded the corresponding nitroxide radicals whose ESR. spectra gave information on the conformation about the ‘interglycosidic’ bridge. This type of compounds should constitute useful spin markers for biological studies.     

Dérivés d'énose- et d'ynosephosphonates et composés voisins. Communication préliminaire

Derivatives of enose- and ynosephosphonates and related compounds. Preliminary communication The gem-dibromo terminal enoses 1 and 7 are convenient sources of glycosylacetylenes which upon reaction with phosphorus electrophiles gave the phosphorusbearing acetylenic sugars 4, 5 and 8 . Compounds 5 and 8 underwent cycloaddition reactions leading to isoxazolyl-C-glycosides 6 and 9 respectively. The nitroolefinic sugar derivative 11 gave upon bromination-dehydrobromination the first example of a new kind of potentially useful synthetic intermediates, the gem-bromonitroenose 12 . The enosephosphonate 13 was also prepared from 11 . The diglycosylhydroxylamine 18 represents another type of phosphorus-bearing acetylenic sugar derivative. Some ¹H- and ¹³C-NMR. data relative to the new types of phosphorus-containing sugar derivatives synthesized are given.     

Déconjugaison d'énones dérivées de sucres Communication préliminaire

Deconjugation of sugars enones. Preliminary Communication Branched-chain sugar enones 1 and 2 ( R = Ac) deconjugated toposelectively (only the E isomers reacting) to 3 . The same phenomenon was noted in the case of Z- 4 which gave E- 5 . The kinetic parameters of these reactions favored a concerted mechanism, i.e. a [1, 5]-sigmatropic shift.     

Dérivés C-glycosyliques. VII. Synthèse et réactions de nitrones dérivées de sucres. Communication préliminaire

The syntheses of three types of sugar nitrones (aldonitrone, ketonitrone and α-β unsaturated aldonitrone) are described. On 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition with phenylacetylene, the aldonitrone gave two Δ₄-isoxazolines epimeric at the new asymetric carbon, while the same reaction on the ketonitrone led to a spiro-Δ₄-isoxazoline. The reaction of these nitrones with carbon nucleophiles like phenylethynylmagnesium bromide constitutes a novel chain-extension reaction in carbohydrate chemistry.     

Ylides du soufre dérivés de sucres Communication préliminaire

S-Methylation of 6-S-benzyl-6-deoxy-1,2-O-isopropylidene-3-O-methyl-α-D-xylo-6-thiohexofuranos-5-ulose ( 1 ) gave the expected sulfonium salt 2 which on alcaline treatment yielded the stable sulfur ylide 3 . This compound constitutes an useful synthetic intermediate in carbohydrate chemistry. On heating in 1,2-dimethoxyethane, it underwent a Stevens rearrangement which led to an extension of the carbon chain of the sugar and, reacted with Michael acceptors, it gave cyclopropanation reactions.

Sugar Free Radicals. VIII. Spin-Labeled Nucleosides Analogs A series of 5′-deoxy-5′-hydroxylamino derivatives of adenosine and uridine have been prepared by reduction of the corresponding oxime or nitrone. ‘Second generation’ 3′-deoxy-3′-N-aryl(or N-alkyl) hydroxylamino-β-D -xylofuranosyluracils have also been synthesized by a one-pot reaction including the following elementary steps: deblocking of the starting material, reduction of the 3′-deoxy-3′-oximinouridine, condensation of the resulting hydroxylamine with an aldehyde, reduction of the nitrone formed. The deoxy-hydroxylaminonucleosides oxidized spontaneously in the air (or in presence of traces of PbO₂) to give the corresponding nitroxide free radicals, ESR spectra of which furnished useful informations on their structures. Some of these modified nucleosides bore notable cytotoxic or antiviral activities.     

Esters phosphoriques,phosphonates et oxydes de phosphine dérivés de sucres. Communication préliminaire

Some sugar phosphates, phosphonates and phosphine oxides, Preliminary communication Some new phosphates of 1, 2-O-isopropylidene-α-D-ribofuranose have been prepared. Reactions of 3-C-cyanomethylidene-3-deoxy-1, 2-O-isopropylidene-5-O-trityl-α-D -erythro-pentofuranose (9) have been studied. On treatment with phosphorus nucleophiles, 9 led to phosphorus bearing branched-chain sugar derivatives. Branched-chain cyanosugars as 15 and 16 prepared by cis-vic-dihydroxylation of 9 constitute interesting potential precursors of new types of cyclic sugar phosphates.     

Nouveaux exemples de radicaux libres stables de dérivés hétérocycliques de sucres. Communication préliminaire

Some more examples of stable free radicals of carbohydrate heterocyclic derivatives 2-Glycosyl-4,4,5,5-tetramethylimidazoline- 3-oxide-1-oxyls and 2-glycosyl-4,4,5,5-tetramethylimidazoline 1-oxyls have been prepared in nine carbohydrate series, which proves the generality of the method. The hyperfine coupling constant between the free electron and the α-proton of the glycosyl group is never very large (0-2.3 G) but a correlation between its value and the structure of the aglycone has been noted. Free radicals of that type, stable in aqueous solutions, are potentially interesting for biological studies.     

C-Glycosides V: Données mécanistiques sur l'halogénation d'hydrazones et d'oximes dérivées de sucres. Communication préliminaire

The bromination of aldehydo-sugars p-nitrophenylhydrazones has been studied and the gem-bromo-azo intermediates isolated and characterized in some cases. In the same way, in the chlorination of aldehydo-sugars oximes gem-chloro-nitroso intermediates have been obtained and in some instances isolated. These observations support a S_E2′ mechanism for such reactions.     

Dérivés diglycosyliques. Communication préliminaire

Diglycosyl Derivatives. Preliminary communication Novel types of diglycosyl compounds, some of them bearing a resemblance to natural di- or tri-saccharides are described: a diglycosyldiyne ( 1 ), a diglycosylthiophene ( 2 ), a diglycosylaziridine ( 3 ), a diglycosyldioxolane ( 4 ), as well as six C,N-diglycosylnitrones, 9b–9f and 14 . These C,N-diglycosylnitrones, on treatment with an acetylenic Grignard reagent, led to the expected acetylenic diglycosyl-hydroxylamine 11 , whereas diglycosylisoxazolines (f. ex. 10 ) were obtained when these nitrones underwent 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition to acetylenic compounds.     

Dérivés de sucres benzimidazoliques et benzothiazoliques

Benzimidazole and benzothiazole sugar derivatives Simple aldehydosugars such as 1 or 2 , by reaction with o-phenylenediamine, gave the corresponding benzimidazoles 3 and 4 . Whereas the unperturbed α, β-unsaturated aldehydosugar D gave the benzodiazepine E upon treatment with o-phenylenediamine, the formyl-bearing alkenyl acetals 5 and 8 led, in the same conditions, to the benzimidazoles 6 and 9 respectively or, on reaction with o-aminothiophenol, to the benzothiazoles 7 and 10 respectively. This difference in reactivity is explained by the electrondonor ability of the oxygen atom of the alkenyl acetal function as shown by the ¹³C-RMN. spectra.     

Dérivés C-Glycosyliques XXXII. Synthèse de dérivés spiro-C-glycosylidéniques par cyclisation nucléophile. Communication préliminaire

C -Glycosylic derivatives XXXII. Synthesis of spiro-C -glycosylidenic derivatives via nucleophilic cyclization. On treatment with compounds bearing two nucleophilic groups as ethylenediamine, o-phenylenediamine or their monooxa or monothia analogues, 1,2:5, 6-di-O-isopropylidene-α-D -ribo-hexofuranos-3-ulose gave with excellent yields the corresponding spiro-C-glycosylidenic derivative; for example, when using o-phenylenediamine, a spirobenzimidazoline ( 5 ) was obtained. The latter compound underwent, on oxidation, a ring expansion to a morpholinobenzimidazole ( 8 ). Spirobenzodiazepines, spirobenzooxazepines and spirobenzothiazepines were formed when applying the same type of cyclization reaction to 3-C-acetylmethylene-3-deoxy-1,2:5,6-di-O-isopropylidene-α-D -ribo- and α-D -xylo-hexofuranoses.     

Triazènes et benzotriazines dérivés de sucres

Sugar triazenes and benzotriazines Several triazenylsugars have been prepared, generally in good yields, by treating an amino sugar with a substituted benzenediazonium salt. The triazenylsugars bearing a hydrogen atom on the triazenyl group are acetylated on the nitrogen atom closest to the glycosyl moiety (N(1)), even when the proton exchanged sites between N(1) and N(3). When an acetyl or a methoxycarbonyl group was present in the ortho position of the benzene ring cyclization took place leading to a 3,4-dihydro-4-methylidene-1,2,3-benzo[d]triazine or a 3,4-dihydro-1,2,3-benzo[d]triazin-4-one respectively.     

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.

Isopropylidene derivatives of keto- or aldehydo-sugars are susceptible to rearrangements involving participation of the dioxolane ring.     

Un nouveau type de sucres azotés,les gem-azo-alcools. Communication préliminaire

Treatment of keto-sugar p-nitrophenylhydrazones with lead tetraacetate led to the corresponding gem-azo-acetates. The reaction is highly stereoselective, only one of the two possible epimers at the new asymmetric carbon being formed in measurable quantity. Catalytic de-acylation of these gem-azo-acetates yielded, quantitatively, representatives of a new class of nitrogen-containing sugars: the gem-azo-alcohols. When treated with potassium t-butylate, the gem-azoacetates underwent a rearrangement with ring expansion leading to N-aminolactams.     

Nouveaux types de sucres acétyléniques. Communication préliminaire

Novel types of acetylenic sugars The coupling, following Cadiot's procedure, of a 6-bromo-5,6-dideoxy-1,2-O-isopropylidène-3-O-methyl-α-D -xylo-hex-5-yno-1, 4-furanose (1) with phenylacetylene, 2-propyn-1-ol or terminal acetylenic sugars gave with excellent yields the expected diynes (an enediyne when the terminal acetylene was the 3,5, 6-trideoxy-1,2-O-isopropylidene-α-D -glycero-hex-3-en-5-yno-1,4-furanose 7 ). The chloro analogue 8 of 1 on treatment with lithium thiophenate gave the corresponding phenylthio-acetylenic sugar 9 . An acetylene was also formed by reacting the gem-difluoro-olefinic sugar 10 with butyllithium whereas the same olefinic sugar and its 3-O-benzyl analogue 11 gave only a gem-fluoro-arylthio-olefinic sugar (13–15) as a mixture of the Z and E isomers (Z/E > 4) when treated with the conjugate base of an arylmercaptan.     

Enaminosucres et sucres halogénoacétyléniques. Communication préliminaire

Enamino- and Halogenoacetylenic sugars Traitment of an aldehydosugar ( 1 ) with secondary amines gave in an essentially quantitative yield the expected enamines ( 4–6 ). Chloro- and bromo-acetylenic sugars ( 11–14 ) were obtained in good yields by reacting with lithium methylphenylamide the corresponding gem-dihalo-olefinic sugars ( 7–10 ), whereas a Z-gem-fluoro-enamine ( 17 ) was formed when the difluoro-olefinic sugar 15 was submitted to the same reaction. The fluoro-enamine 17 is a useful synthetic intermediate allowing the preparation of several kinds of C-glycosylic compounds bearing heterocycles like isoxazole, chromone or coumarin.

CαH?Cγ(Br)C?N, reacted with binucleophiles, gave rise to α, α, α, β or α, γ ring-forming reactions. C-glycosyl-dioxolanes, -aziridines, -dithianes, -pyrimidines, -furanes and -pyrazoles were so obtained. The stereochemical paths of some of these reactions are discussed.
