Abstract

Diastereoselective electrophilic bromination of 3,6-dihydro-2H-1,2-oxazines syn-1 and anti-1 led to 5-bromo-1,2-oxazin-4-ones 2a and 3a, respectively. Reduction furnished 1,2-oxazin-4-ones 4 and 6 which could be transformed into enantiopure amino and imino sugar derivatives. Nucleophilic substitution of the bromo functionality gave amino substituted 1,2-oxazines 10. They were converted into diamino substituted sugar derivatives.

11

13% of starting material 5 have been isolated.

12

With 2a this procedure led to the formation of a 1:1 mixture of diastereomeric azido oxazinones. Apparently, epimerization either of 2a or the resulting azido oxazinone is considerably faster here.

13

As a side product 8% of the N,O-diprotected 1,2-oxazine were obtained.

15

Correct spectroscopical data were obtained for all new compounds. Correct elemental analysis was achieved for all stable compounds.

Typical Procedure, anti -1 to 3a: To a solution of NBS (0.222 g, 1.25 mmol) in CH3CN (13 mL) and H2O (0.8 mL) a solution of anti-1 (0.382 g, 1.25 mmol) in CH3CN (3 mL) was added at -40 °C. The mixture was stirred for 1 h at this temperature and then warmed up to r.t. After quenching with H2O the solution was extracted with Et2O and the combined extracts were dried with MgSO4. After removal of the solvent the crude mixture was dissolved in n-hexane and the insoluble N-succinimide was separated by filtration. After evaporating the solvent 3a (dr 93:7, 0.450 g, 97%) was obtained. Recrystalization with n-hexane led to diastereo-merically pure 3a as colorless crystals (mp 53-60 °C).

Typical Procedure, 3a to 10: To a solution of 3a (0.555 g, 1.50 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (4 mL) and H2O (2 mL) NaN3 (0.487 g, 7.50 mmol) and Me(Oct)3NCl (15 mg) were added. The mixture was stirred for 3 d at r.t., the layers were separated and the organic layer was washed with H2O. After drying with MgSO4 the solvent was evaporated yielding spectroscopically pure 10 (dr = 92:8, 0.500 g, quant.) as viscose brown oil.
