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.     

Thiosucres. III. Réactions du substituant (benzylthio)-acétyle. Communication préliminarie

Thiosugars. III. Some reactions of the (benzylthio)-acetyl substituent Preliminary Communication The (benzylthio)-acetyl substituent as found in 6-benzylthio-6-deoxy-1, 2-O-isopropylidene-3-O-methyl-α-D-xylo-hexofuranos-5-ulose ( 1 ) constitutes and useful synthon which can be transformed into ‘second generation’ synthons as, for example, the sulfylidene 10 or the chlorinated derivative 14 . S-Debenzylating C-acylation of 10 leading to 11 is described as well as the ring-forming condensation of 10 with the sulfene 12 . Depending on the nature of the nucleophile reacted with 14 , one can obtain the product of the substitution of the chlorine atom or of the chlorine atom and the benzylthio group or reactions taking place at both the carbonyl group and the terminal carbon atom, among them binucleophilic cyclizations. Some reactions of the conjugate base of 14 are also described.

When treated with a series of nucleophiles cis-3-cyanomethylene-3-deocy-1,2:5,6-di-O-isopropylidene-α-D-ribo-hexofurannose ( 1 ) may yield its trans isomer, a product of allylic isomerization or a product of conjugate addition, depending on the nature of the nucleophile. The configuration of the starting material is also important as shown by the differences in reactivity between 1 and its trans-xylo isomer 8 .

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.

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.     

Synthèse et réactions de didésoxy-5,6-halogéno-6-α-D-xylo-hepténo-5-furannurononitriles. Communication préliminaire

Synthesis and reactions of 5,6-dideoxy-6-halogeno-α-D-xylo-hept-5-eno-furanurononitriles The 5,6-dideoxy-6-chloro-, 6-iodo- and 6-fluoro-3-O-methyl-α-D -xylo-hept-5-eno-furanurononitriles have been prepared, their properties described as well as the methods used for the assignment of the configuration of the geometrical isomers. Some new reactions of the 6-bromo analog ( 1 ) of these compounds are reported. For example, when reacted with 2-mercaptoethanol or N,N′-dimethyl-ethylenediamine in the presence of NaOH, 1 gave the corresponding six-membered ring, stereo-isomers of an oxathiane or of a perhydrodiazine respectively. When the base used was Et₃N and the binucleophile the N-methyl-ethanolamine or the N,N′-dimethyl-ethylene-diamine the major product was a cyano-enamine which could be hydrolysed to a β-cyanoketone or cyclized to a five-membered ring, an oxazolidine or an imidazolidine respectively.

Syntheses of Pyrazole Iso-C-Nucleosides

ABSTRACT

3-O-Benzyl-6-deoxy-1,2-O-isopropylidene-α-D-xylo-hexofuranos-5-ulose (1) and 3,6-dideoxy-1,2-O-isopropylidene-α-D-glycero-hex-3-enofuranos-5-ulose (6) reacted with carbon disulfide and methyl iodide under basic conditions to give the α-oxoketene-S,S-acetals 2 and 7, respectively.

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.     

Pterin chemistry. 46. Identification of substituted tetrahydropterins through gas chromatography and mass spectrometry

When treated with cyanide ion, 1,2:5,6-di-O-isopropylidene-α-_D-ribo-hexofuranos-3-ulose yields one or the other of the two corresponding epimeric cyanhydrines, depending on the experimental conditions. One of these epimers, reacted with ammonium cyanide, yields the corresponding amino-nitrile, the other being unreactive. Several derivatives of these compounds are briefly described.     

Dérivés C-glycosyliques. XXIV. Glycosyl-4-thiazoles

4-C-glycosylthiazoles have been prepared by reacting thiourea or thioacetamide with a 6-S-benzyl-6-chloro-1,2-O-isopropylidene-3-O-methyl-α-D-xylo-6-thiohexofuranos-5-ulose (7).

Synthèse de spiro-pyrazolines par cycloaddition du diazométhane sur des sucres insaturés ramifiés. Influence de l'isomérie géométrique sur l'orientation de la réaction Communication préliminaire

The orientation of the cycloaddition of diazomethane on unsaturated branchedchain sugars has been studied. For 3-C-cyanomethylidene-3-deoxy-1,2-O-isopropylidene-α-D-glycero-tetrofuranose the orientation was ‘normal’ and did not depend on the configuration at the double bond. The same situation prevailed with derivatives of 3-deoxy-1,2:5,6-di-O-isopropylidene-3-C-methylidene-α-D-xylo-hexofuranose. For the 3-C-acylmethylidene- and the 3-C-cyanomethylidene-3-deoxy-1,2:5,6-di-O-isopropylidene-α-D-ribo-hexofuranoses, the trans-(H–C(3′)–C(2))-isomer gave the ‘normal’ cycloadduct whereas the cis-isomer gave predominantly the αabnormal spiro-pyrazoline. This observation represents the first instance where the regioselectivity of a cycloaddition reaction is affected by the geometrical isomerism of the dipolarophile. The most probable explanation of the phenomenon is the conformational perturbation about the C(4)--C(5) bond of the unsaturated sugars induced by a change in the configuration at C(3). The consequence of that ‘conformational transmission’ of a difference in configuration at C(3) is that the steric crowding on the cis- than in the trans-isomer. Several novel examples of a new series of C-glycosylidenic derivatives, the spiro-pyrazolines, are described.     

The Isomeric Composition of D-Xylo-hexos-5-ulose (5-Keto-glucose) in Aqueous Solution

Abstract

1,2-O-Isopropylidene-α-D-xylo-hexofuranos-5-ulose (2) was deprotected in aqueous acid solution to give a mixture of at least six isomeric forms and one anhydro form of the parent ketoaldohexose, D-xylo-hexos-5-ulose (3), commonly referred to as 5-keto-glucose. Structural assignment of each form was made based on high field ¹H and ¹³C NMR studies of the mixture in aqueous (D₂O) solution. The dominant isomeric form of 3 was observed to have the pyranose structure 1R,5R-D-xlyo-hexo-pyranos-5-ulose (3a, 67 %) with the next most abundant form being an anhydro structure, 1S,5S-l,6-anhydro-D-xylo-hexopyranos-5-ulose (3c, 18 %). Included among the other isomers were the a and β-1,4-furanose (3d, 3e) and 1-aldehydrol β-5,2-furanose (3f) structures. The isomer present in least amount (3g, > 1 %) is assigned as the α-anomer of 3f. Experimentally determined J_C-1,H-1 values were useful in support of assigned isomer structures.     

Efficient Synthesis of 2′-Deoxy-β-D-furanosyl C-Glycosides. Palladium-Mediated Glycal-Aglycone Coupling and Stereocontrolled β- and α-Face Reductions of 3-Keto-furanosyl Moieties

ABSTRACT

Efficient routes for selective syntheses of 2′-deoxy-β-D-furanosyl C-glycosides have been developed and demonstrated by preparation of the isomers 5-[2′-deoxy-β-D-ribo- (=arabino)furanosyl]-1,3-dimethyl-2,4(1H,3H)-pyrimidinedione and 5-[2′-deoxy-β-D-xylo-(=lyxo)furanosyl]-1,3-dimethyl-2,4(1H,3H)-pyrimidinedione. The syntheses involved regio-and stereospecific palladium-mediated coupling of a new glycal, 1,4-anhydro-2-deoxy-3-O-[(1,1-dimethylethyl)diphenylsilyl]-D-erythro-pent-1-enitol with an appropriate aglycone derivative to form a single 2′-deoxy-3′-keto-β-D-furanosyl C-glycoside (as the corresponding silyl enol ether). Following desilylation, the ketone group of the furanosyl ring was reduced stereo-selectively in either of two ways: by delivery of hydride from (a) the most hindered face of the carbonyl carbon using sodium (triacetoxy)borohydride or (b) the least hindered face using potassium tri-(sec-butyl)borohydride.     

Synthesis of O-[4,6-Di-O-Acetyl-4-O-(2,3,4,6-Tetra-O-Acetyl-β-D-Galactopyranosyl)-2-Deoxy-2-Hydroxyimino-D-Arabino-Hexopyranosyl]-N-Benzyloxycarbonyl-L-Serine Methyl Esters And Their Transformations

ABSTRACT

3,6-Di-O-acetyl-4-O-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-β-D-galactopyranosyl)-2-deoxy-2-hydroxyimino-α- and -β-D-arabino-hexopyranosides of N-benzyloxycarbonyl-L-serine methyl ester as well as of ethanol have been synthesised from D-lactal hexaacetate via nitrosyl chloride, followed by condensation with L-serine derivatives and ethanol, respectively. The compounds of L-serine thus obtained were modified at C-2 and C-3 to afford L-serine derivatives attached to disaccharides containing terminal α-D-gluco-, 2-acetamido-α-D-gluco-, β-D-manno, 2-acetamido-β-D-manno-pyranosyl, 3-azido-2-hydroxyimino-α-D-arabino-, and α-D-ribo-hexopyranosyl residues.     

Participation by C-3 Substituents in Disaccharide Formation

Abstract

Four reactions were conducted in order to study the ability of a C-3 acyloxy group to control the stereoselectivity of glycosidation reactions in which the glycosyl donors were unsubstituted at c-2. These donors differed in the structure of the acyloxy group attached to C-3 (benzoyloxy or p-methoxybenzoyloxy) and in the identity of the leaving group (chloro or thiomethoxy) attached to the anomeric carbon. The stereoselectivity in all reactions was low; for example, treatment of 3,4-di-O-benzoyl-2,6-dideoxy-D-ribo-hexopyranosyl chloride (6) with methyl 4-O-benzoyl-2,6-dideoxy-α-D-lyxo-hexopyranoside (7) yielded a 2.2/1 (α/β) ratio of methyl 4-O-benzoyl-3-O-(3,4-di-O-benzoyl-2,6-dideoxy- α-D-ribo-hexopyranosyl-2,6-dideoxy-α-D-ribo-hexopyranoside (8) and methyl 4-O-benzoyl-3-O-(3,4-di-O-benzoyl-2,6-dideoxy-α-D-lyxo-hexopyranoside-2,6-dideoxy-α-D-lyxo-hexopyranoside (9). Formation of 1,5-anhydro-3,4-di-O-benzoyl-2,6-dideoxy-D-ribo-her-1-enitol (10) was a significant additional reaction. In reactions involving the thioglycosides only trace amounts of glycals were formed and approximately equal amounts of α and β anomers were produced. The significance of these reactions to participation by C-3 acyloxy groups is discussed.     

Application de la réaction de Wittig à la synthèse de dérivés de bromoénosuloses et d'esters bromoénuroniques. Note de laboratoire

Use of the Wittig reaction for the synthesis of derivatives of bromoenosuloses and bromoenuronic esters Treatment of 3-O-benzyl (or 3-O-methyl)-1, 2-O-isopropylidene-α-D -xylo-pentodialdo-1, 4-furanoses ( 2 or 1 ) with acetylbromomethylidenetriphenylphosphorane ( 3 ), benzoylbromomethylidenetriphenylphosphorane ( 4 ) or bromoethoxycarbonylmethylidenetriphenylphosphorane ( 5 ) gave in good to excellent yields the expected enose ( 6--11 ). In all cases but one ( 8 where some 10% of the E-isomer was formed) the reaction led to the exclusive formation of the Z-isomer whose configuration was established by NMR.     

Nouveaux exemples d'acétonides d'aldéhydosucres furanniques

Further examples of O-isopropylidenaldehydosugars in the furanose series Formyl-bearing furanose derivatives 1–3 (α-D -xylo or α-D -erythro configurations) and 5–8 (configurations α-D -ribo, α-D -lyxo, β-L -threo and D -arabino) have been prepared by classical synthetic steps and their properties mainly spectroscopic, reported. The coupling constant between the formyl and the vicinal proton is always small. Like other members of the series, these new aldehydosugars constitute very useful and flexible synthetic intermediates.

Cross-aldolisation of 3,6-[(tert-butoxy)carbonyl]imino-2,3,6-trideoxy-4,5-O-isopropylidene-L-arabino-hexose (10) with 1,6-anhydro-2-O-benzyl-3-deoxy-β-D-erythro-hexopyrano-4-ulose (6) generates, after water elimination, a single enone 11 that is reduced selectively into an allylic alcohol 12, deprotection of which affords methyl (Z)-3-deoxy-3-(1,2,3,6-tetradeoxy-3,6-imino-L-arabino-hexitol-1-C-ylidene)-β-D-xylo-hexofuranoside (1) and (Z)-1,6-anhydro-3-deoxy-3-(1,2,3,6-tetradeoxy-3,6-imino-L-arabino-hexitol-1-C-ylidene)-β-D-xylo-hexopyranose (14).     

Studies of the Synthesis of Rubranitrose and Crystal Structure of Methyl 2,3,6-Trideoxy-3-C-Methyl-3-Nitro-α-D-Ribo-Hexopyranoside

Abstract

The branched-chain nitro sugar methyl 2,3,6-trideoxy-3-C-methyl-3-nitro-α-D-ribo-hexopyranoside 4 was investigated as a precursor to D-rubranitrose, a nitro sugar found in the antibiotic rubradirin. X-ray cyrstallographic analysis of 4 shows that the pyranose ring adopts the ⁴ C ₁ conformation with the methoxy group at C-1 and the nitro group at C-3 in a 1,3-diaxial relationship. There is an intermolecular hydrogen bond involving a nitro group oxygen of one monosaccharide residue and the C-4 hydroxyl group of the adjacent residue in the crystal lattice. This interaction results in a helical crystal packing. A series of nucleophilic displacement reactions was carried out on the triflate derivative of 4 in an attempt to introduce an axial carbon-oxygen bond at C-4 required for rubranitrose. Displacements with acetate and propionate gave as products the monosaccharide esters with the desired D-xylo configuration.
