Abstract

A protected α-d-glucopyranosylacetaldehyde was converted by Wittig reaction with (thiazol-2-yl)carbonylmethylene­triphenyl phosphorane into the corresponding substituted 1-oxa-1,3-butadiene which by hetero-Diels-Alder reaction with ethyl vinyl ether afforded a mixture of two diastereoisomeric dihydropyran derivatives. These were separated by chromatography and the thiazol ring was transformed into an aldehyde group. Subsequent hydro­boration afforded α-C-(1→3)-linked disaccharides containing 2-deoxyhexopyranoses of d- or l-configuration.

The NOE experiments with the obtained mixture of cycloadducts proved the cis relative configurations on dihydropyran ring in both componds 6 and 7. The NMR spectra did not reveal any endo-cycloadducts in the reaction mixture.

Ethyl vinyl ether (1.5mL, 15 mmol) and Eu(fod)3 (460 mg, 0.4 mmol) were added to a solution of 5 (4 g, 6.2 mmol) in dichloromethane (10.7 mL) and the reaction mixture was sonicated for 6 h at room temperature.

A solution of aldehyde 10 (230 mg, 0.33 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (3.4 mL) was cooled to 0 °C and then treated with 1 M solution of (CH3)2S˙BH3 in tetrahydrofuran (0.69 mL, 0.69 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred for 20 min at 0 °C and for 18 h at room temperature. Then, 0.37 mL of 30% NaOH and 0.37 mL of 30% H2O2 were added at 0 °C, and the solution was stirred at room temperature for 40 min. After dilution with brine (10 mL), the solution was extracted with ethyl acetate (3 × 10 mL), and the combined organic layers were dried (Mg2SO4). Evaporation of the solvent under reduced pressure and chromatography of the residue (light petroleum-ethyl acetate 1:1) afforded 143 mg (60%) of 12 (Rf = 0.5) as a colorless oil.
