Abstract
A fructofuranosyl thiglycoside donor, ethyl 6-O-acetyl-3-O-benzyl-1,4-O-(1,1,3,3-tetraisopropyldisiloxane-1,3-diyl)-2-thio-β-d-fructofuranoside (11), designed to yield stereospecifically β-linkages and also to allow subsequent elongation in the 6- and/or 1-positions, was prepared and used in syntheses of levan and inulin structures. DMTST-promoted glycosylation between 11 (1.3 mol equiv) and methyl β-d-fructofuranoside 6-OH and 1-OH acceptors (3 and 6) gave stereospecifically the protected methyl levanobioside 12 and inulinobioside 17 in excellent yields (80 and 86%), respectively. Protecting group manipulations on these afforded new disaccharide 6‘-OH and 1‘-OH acceptors (13 and 19), which were coupled again with donor 11 (1.0 mol equiv) to yield methyl levanotrioside 14 and inulinotrioside 20 in high yields, 65 and 67%, respectively. These were transformed into new acceptors and also fully deprotected to afford the methyl glycosides of levanotriose and inulinotriose, all structures that have earlier not...
