Abstract

A new approach for the synthesis of cinnamoyl glycoside has been developed via iodination-Heck reaction sequence starting from phenyl glycoside. Successful application of this procedure accomplished the construction of the right core structure of amino­sugar antibiotic, glycocinnasperimicin D.

    In our case, bromophenyl glycosides, prepared (NBS, DMF, r.t.) in good yields, were found to be poor substrates for the Heck reaction.

  • 9 Although cinnamoyl glycosides are known as important natural products, their synthesis suffer from the low nucleophilicity of p-hydroxycinnamic acid derivatives. For example: Takada N. Kato E. Ueda K. Yamamura S. Ueda M. Tetrahedron Lett.  2002,  43:  7655

This acid-catalyzed glycosylation initially led to the formation of an anomeric mixture of phenyl galactosides. Prolonged reaction time (4 d) resulted in a gradual decrease of the β-isomer proportion and concomitant increase in the formation of α-anomer.

We have found the reversal of selectivity in this glycosylation using TMSOTf and Et2O (Scheme [5] ).
