Abstract: | A series of conformationally restricted N-"furanosides" has been synthesized, where the carbons of the tetrahydrofuran ring are kept in one plane by a rigid norbornane skeleton, permitting only the ring oxygen to move above or below the tetrahydrofuran ring plane. This causes the substituents of the anomeric carbon to occupy a pseudoaxial or a pseudoequatorial position. On protonation of these "norbornane-furanosides" with trifluoromethanesulfonic acid, all three compounds exhibited decreasing coupling constants for the anomeric proton, indicating a shift toward the pseudoaxial conformation. The coupling constant measurements were supported by volume integration of NOESY cross-peaks, which also showed a change toward the pseudoaxial conformation upon protonation of the nitrogen. These results provide no evidence for the so-called reverse anomeric effect; on the contrary they are in full agreement with a small normal anomeric effect. |
