Unexpected Cyclization During the Mitsunobu Reaction of d-Talose ­Derivatives

Abstract

A d-talose derivative underwent unexpected cyclization during a Mitsunobu reaction. A plausible pathway for the reaction involves an attack of the nucleophilic azide on the benzyl ring by intramolecular cyclization with loss of the benzyl group. These newly formed, unexpected compounds may be used in the synthesis of ­derivatives of C-nucleosides.

Key words

Mitsunobu reaction - tetrahydroxy-LCB - d-talose - ­nucleosides - cyclization

• 13 Procedure for the Synthesis of Compound 19 To a solution of olefin 17 (104 mg, 0.15 mmol) and Ph₃P (116 mg, 0.47 mmol) in anhyd THF (1 mL) was stirred at 0 °C. Diisopropyl azodicarboxylate (87 μL, 0.44 mmol) and diphenyl phosphoryl azide (102 μL, 0.44 mmol) were slowly added to the reaction mixture at 0 °C. The reaction mixture was stirred at r.t. overnight. The solvent was evaporated and the colorless oil 19 (57 mg, 0.096 mmol, 64%) was obtained by column chromatography.
