Chemical Glycosylation Reactions
⊡ Scheme 59
The discovery (already mentioned) that benzylated or silylated 1-tri-n-butylstannyl derivatives
of glucal undergo palladium-catalyzed cross-couplings with aryl or alkenyl halides [263,264]
facilitated synthesis of naturally occurring C-glycosyl compounds [264]. Interestingly, silylated 1-iodo D-glucal 177, obtained by a two-step procedure consisting of stannylation and tiniodine exchange, can also be coupled with a variety of metalated aromatic derivatives to afford
a high yield of 1-C-arylated compounds 178 ( > Scheme 59) (the best results were obtained
using arylboronic acids and ArZnCl derivatives) [265]. 1-C-arylated compounds, in turn, are
useful precursors of more complex C-glycosyl natural products. In an analogous way, iodoglucal can be obtained in unexpectedly high yield (75%) upon attempted coupling of C-1 stannylated derivative to 3-iodo-2-propyn-1-ol [263].
2-Cyanoglycals [266], which have found application in the synthesis of branched sugars [267],
can be obtained in moderate yields by addition of chlorosulfonyl isocyanate to acylated glycals and treatment of intermediate N-chlorosulfonamides with triethylamine. Potentially useful S-heterocyclic analogs of glycals have been obtained predominantly by adaptation of the
reductive elimination method described in the first part of this chapter [268,269].
