Highly stereoselective addition of organozinc reagents to pentopyranose derived glycals: effect of protecting group and assignment of C-glycoside stereochemistry

The nucleophilic addition of ethyl 3-propionylzinc iodide to a variety of differently protected pentopyranose derived d-glycals 6a– g proceeds with good to high levels of diastereoselectivity to provide the corresponding β- C-glycosides 7 . The stereochemistry of the para-nitrobenzoate derivative 7d...

Summary:The nucleophilic addition of ethyl 3-propionylzinc iodide to a variety of differently protected pentopyranose derived d-glycals 6a– g proceeds with good to high levels of diastereoselectivity to provide the corresponding β- C-glycosides 7 . The stereochemistry of the para-nitrobenzoate derivative 7d has been confirmed by X-ray crystallography, and the stereochemistry of the other β- C-glycoside products has been correlated to 7d . The stereochemical outcome observed supports the earlier suggestion by Isobe that through-space effects are important in stabilising and controlling the reactivity of the intermediate oxonium species represented by 11 .
