Heterocyclic N-glycosyl derivatives—XIII: Reaction of 6-chloropurine and benzotriazoles with acetylated glycals

Acid-catalysed reactions of tri-O-acetyl-D-glucal with benzotriazole, 5,6-dimethylbenzotriazole, 5,6-dichlorobenzotriazole and 6-chloropurine have been found to give anomeric mixtures of the corresponding 2′,3′-unsaturated N-glycosyl derivatives with the α-anomers preponderating. When tri-O-acetyl-D-galactal was used the 3′,4′,6′-tri-O-acetyl-α- and β-D-lyxo-hexopyranosyl nucleoside analogs were obtained. The conformation and anomeric configuration of all the N-glycosyl compounds obtained were assigned by NMR studies.
