Abstract: | A new approach to carbasugars in enantiomerically pure form is reported. The key step involves ring-closing metathesis of dienols 6 derived from a (R)-(+)-glyceraldehyde derivative 4 to form the substituted cyclopentenol 9 and cyclohexenol 34a. Stereocontrolled addition of hydroxyl groups followed by conversion of the ketal unit to hydroxymethyl group in these intermediates led to carbapentoses and -hexoses. Stereoselectivity during introduction of hydroxyl groups arises through the steric hindrance posed by the allylic substituents. A remarkable feature of the present approach is the accessibility of both d- and l-series of carbapentoses as illustrated by the synthesis of beta-D- and beta-L-carbaribofuranoses 17 and 20, respectively. Carba-alpha-D-ribofuranose 25, the biosynthetic intermediate to the antibiotic aristeromycin, has also been synthesized from the same cyclopentenol 9. Functional group manipulation in the cyclopentenol 9a also enabled access to carbaarabinofuranose 32. The present synthetic strategy can be extended for the synthesis of carbahexopyranose, as illustrated by the synthesis of carba-alpha-L-gulopyranose 40b. |
