Synthesis of the 4-Deoxy-2-Deutero-4-Fluoro Analog of Methyl O-β-D-Galactopyranosyl-(1→6)-β-D-Galactopyranoside

ABSTRACT

Methyl 4-deoxy-4-fluoro-6-O-(β-D-galactopyranosyl)-(2-²H)-β-D-galactopyranoside was prepared by the condensation of 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-benzoyl-α-D-galactopyranosyl bromide and methyl 2-O-benzoyl-3-O-benzyl-4-deoxy-4-fluoro-(2-²H)-β-D-galactopyranoside (17), followed by deprotection. The introduction of deuterium at C-2 in an intermediate methylhexopyranoside was achieved by a double inversion, brought about by oxidation of C-2 of a derivative of methyl α-D-glucopyranoside, to give the corresponding ketone, and subsequent reduction thereof with NaBD₄, to give a derivative with the D-manno configuration (8). Inversion of the configuration at C-2 of the latter was achieved by displacement with sodium benzoate of the O-trifluoromethanesulfonyl (triflyl) group in the 2-O-triflyl derivative of 8. The resulting synthon was converted, conventionally, to methyl 2-O-benzoyl-3-O-benzyl-6-O-trityl-(2-²H)-β-D-glucopyranoside. Its conversion into the 6-O-trityl derivative of 17, unsuccessful by treatment with dimethylaminosulfur trifluoride, was readily accomplished by the displacement of the triflyl group with fluoride ion contained in an ion-exchange resin.     

Action of Base on Methyl 6-Thio- (and 6-Deoxy-) 2-O-Methanesulfonyl-α-d-Glucopyranoside Derivatives1

Abstract

Treatment of methyl 4-O-benzoyl-3-O-tert-butyldiphenylsilyl-2-O-methanesulfonyl-6-thio-α-d-glucopyranoside (8) and its 6-deoxy analogue (11) with methanolic sodium methoxide, afforded methyl 2,3-anhydro-mannopyranoside derivatives as a consequence of an O₃ → O₄ TBDPS rearrangement. When the protecting group at C-3 was 2-methoxyethoxy methyl ether only deacylation and methanolysis of the methanesulfonyl group occurred.     

Synthesis of Specifically Fluorinated Methyl β-Glycosides of (1→6)-β-D-Galactooligosaccharides II. Methyl 4-Deoxy-4-fluoro-6-O-(β-D-galactopyranosyl)-β-D-galactopyranoside

Abstract

Condensation of methyl 2,3-di-O-benzyl-4-deoxy-4-fluoro-β-D-galactopyranoside with 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-α-D-galactopyranosyl bromide in the presence of mercuric cyanide in benzene afforded, in excellent yield, the β-linked product. Its deblocking, effected by hydrogenolytic cleavage of the benzyl groups followed by deacecylation or, alternatively, via a pathway where the sequence of the deblocking reactions was reversed, gave crystalline title disaccharide 10. The structures of the compounds involved in the synthesis were confirmed by C NMR spectroscopy.

Stereocontrolled Synthesis of 6′-Deoxy-6′-Fluoro Derivatives of Methyl α-Sophoroside, α-Laminaribioside, α-Kojibioside and α-Nigeroside

Abstract

Sequential tritylation, benzoylation and detritylation of D-glucose, followed by resolution of the crude product by chromatograpEy gave crystalline 1,2,3,4-tetra-O-benzoyl-α- (1) and β-D-glucopyranose (2). Compound 1, 2, and the corresponding methyl α-glycoside 5 were treated with dimethylaminosulfur trifluoride (methyl DAST) to give, respectively, the 6-deoxy-6-fluoro derivatives 3, 4, and 6. Crystalline 2,3,4-tri-O-benzoyl-6-deoxy-6-fluoro-α-D-glucopyranosyl chloride (10) could be obtained from either 3, 4, or 5 by reaction with dichloromethyl methyl ether in the presence of anhydrous zinc chloride. Silver trifluoromethanesulfonate-promoted reaction of 10 with methyl 2-O-(9) and 3-O-benzyl-4,6-O-benzylidene-α-D-glucopyranoside (8) gave the corresponding, (β-linked disaccharidës in high yield. Subsequent deprotection afforded the 6′-deoxy-6′-fluoro derivatives of methyl α-sophoroside (13) and methyl 6′ -deoxy-o′-fluoro-α-laminaribioside (16). Condensation of 8 and 9 with 6-O-acetyl-2,3,4-tri-O-benzyl-α-D-glucopyranosyl chloride in the presence of silver perchlorate was highly stereoselective and produced the α-linked disaccharidës 17 and 21, respectively, in excellent yield. Deacetylation of 17 and 21, followed by fluorination of the resulting alcohols 18 and 22 with methyl DAST and subsequent hydrogenolysis, gave 6′-deoxy-6′-fluoro derivatives of methyl α-kojibioside and methyl α-nigeroside 20 and 24, respectively.     

Synthesis of 2-(Substituted Benzylideneamino)-4-(4′-hydroxyphenyl) Thiazoles and Their O-Glucosides

2-Amino-4-(4′-hydroxyphenyl) thiazole 1a was prepared from reaction between p-hydroxyacetophenone, thiourea, and iodine; compound 1a was treated with several (aryl/hetro aryl) aldehydes to form 2-(substituted benzylideneamino)-4-(4′-hydroxyphenyl) thiazoles 2a–j, which were glucosylated by using acetobromoglucose as a glucosyl donor to afford 2-(substituted benzylideneamino)-4-(2, 3, 4, 6-tetera-o-acetyl-4′-o-β-d-glucosidoxyphenyl) thiazoles 3a–j, which further on during deacetylation produced 2-(substituted benzylideneamino)-4-(4′-o-β-d-glucosidoxyphenyl) thiazoles 4a–j. These compounds were evaluated for biological activity, and their structure was confirmed by IR, NMR, mass spectra, elemental, and chemical analysis.

Convenient Synthesis of 2,2′- and 4,4′-Methylenebisphenols with Bulky Alkyl Substituents and Evaluation of Their Antioxidant Activity

The work is devoted to a convenient procedure of the synthesis of 2,2′- and 4,4′-methylenebisphenols with alkyl substituents in heterogeneous catalysis. This compounds were obtained with yields up to 87% by reflux of 2,4- or 2,6-dialkylphenols with HCHO in n-octane in the presence of KSF clay. We found that the antioxidant activity on DPPH test for two novel methylenebisphenols having isobornyl fragments was comparable with control drugs.     

Synthesis of O-(2-Acetamido-2-Deoxy-β-D-Glucopyranosyl)-(l→2)-O-α-D-Mannopyranosyl-(l→6)-O-β-D-Glucopyranosyl-(1→4)-2-Acetamido-2-Deoxy-D-Glucopyranose. A Potential Acceptor-Substrate for N-Acetylglucosaminyltransferase-V (GnT-V)

Abstract

The reaction of phenyl 3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-2-deoxy-2-phthaIimido-l-thio-β-D-glucopyranoside with methyl 3,4,6-tri-O-benzyl-α-D-mannopyranoside catalysed by iodonium ion (TfOH-NIS) followed by deacylation-acetylarion afforded disaccharide 11. which was readily converted (in four steps) to bromide 12. A similar glycosylarion with phenyl 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-l-thio-D-glucopyranoside of benzyl 2-acetamido-3,6-di-O-benzyl-2-deoxy-α-D-glucopyranoside 16 followed by O-deacetylation of the resulting intermediate gave disaccharide 18. The 4,6-O-benzylidene derivative of 18 was acetylated then deacetaled to give diol 21. This diol acceptor was condensed with bromide 12 (promoted by mercuric cyanide) to give the partially protected tetrasaccharide derivative 22 which was O-deacetylated and then subjected to catalytic hydrogenation to furnish the title tetrasaccharide 6. The structure assigned to 6 was supported by ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectral data and FAB mass spectroscopy.     

Analogues of Moranoline and Mdl 73945. Methyl 6(5)-Deoxy-6(5)-(Morpholin-4-Yl)-α-D-Glycosides as Glucosidase Inhibitors

ABSTRACT

Methyl 2,3,4-tri-O-acetyl-6-O-(p-tolylsulfonyl)-α-D-glucopyranoside (6), or its iodo analogue 7, were subjected to nucleophilic displacement with morpholine to give 8, deacetylation of which gave methyl 6-deoxy-6-(morpholin-4-yl)-α-D-glucopyranoside (3). Similarly, 11, 12 and 21 were prepared. The 6-deoxy-6-iodo derivative 16 was subjected to nucleophilic displacement with morpholine and subsequent acetylation to give 15. Deacetylation of 15 gave 17. The kinetic studies for the inhibition of β-D-glucosidase from sweet almond and using o-nitrophenyl β-D-glucopyranoside as substrate exhibited a K _i value for 21 on the same order as 1-deoxynojirimycin whereas for 3, a K _i value of lesser order was observed.

Abstract

Syntheses are described of the three disaccharides: methyl 3-O-L-glycero-α-D-manno-heptopyranosyl-L-glycero-α-D-manno-heptopyranoside 4-phosphate, methyl 3-O-(L-glycero-α-D-manno-heptopyranosyl 4-phosphate)-L-glycero-α-D-manno-heptopyranoside, and methyl 3-O-(L-glycero-α-D-manno-heptopyranosyl 4-phosphate)-L-glycero-α-D-manno-heptopyranoside 4-phosphate together with their 2-(4-trifluoroacetamidophenyl)ethyl glycoside analogues. These correspond to phosphorylated structures found in the inner core region of lipopolysaccharides from Salmonella. The known derivative methyl 6,7-di-O-acetyl-2,3,4-tri-O-benzyl-L-glycero-α-D-manno-heptopyranoside was used as a common heptose precursor. Phosphorylation on suitably protected disaccharide derivatives was performed by treatment with phosphorus triimidazolate in dichloromethane followed by the addition of benzyl alcohol and in situ oxidation with m-chloroperbenzoic acid to give the dibenzyltriester phosphate derivatives, which after deprotection gave the target compounds.

ABSTRACT

Synthesis of a positional isomer of sialyl Lewis X with regard to the substitution of the terminal galactose residue of the pentasaccharide by N-acetylneuraminic acid is described. Dimethyl(methylthio)sulfonium triflate-promoted coupling of 2-(trimethylsilyl)ethyl O-(2,3,4-tri-O-benzyl-α-L-fucopyranosyl)-(1→3)-O-(2-acetamido-6-O-benzyl-2-deoxy-ß-D-glucopyranosyl)-(1→3)-O-(2,4,6-tri-O-benzyl-ß-D-galactopyranosyl)-(1→4)-2,3,6-tri-O-benzyl-ß-D-glucopyranoside (1) with methyl O-(methyl 5-acetamido-4,7,8,9-tetra-O-acetyl-3,5-dideoxy-D-glycero-α-D-galacto-2-nonulopyranosylonate)-(2→6)-2,4-di-O-benzoyl-3-O-benzyl-1-thio-ß-D-galactopyranoside (2) gave the desired hexasaccharide 3. Compound 3 was converted into the α-trichloro-acetimidate 6, via reductive removal of the benzyl groups, O-acetylation, removal of the 2-(trimethylsilyl)ethyl group, and treatment with trichloro-acetonitrile, which, on coupling with (2S, 3R, 4E)-2-azido-3-O-benzoyl-4-octadecene-1,3-diol (7), gave the ß-glycoside 8. Finally, 8 was transformed, via selective reduction of the azide group, coupling with octadecanoic acid, O-deacylation, and hydrolysis of the methyl ester group, into the title ganglioside 11 in good yield.
