Abstract
The use of pentenyl and thiophenyl glycosides of N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) as glycosyl donors for the direct preparation of O-glycosides of GlcNAc promoted by N-iodosuccinimide (NIS) and metal triflates in dichloromethane has been investigated. Both glycosyl acceptors 1-octanol and (−)-menthol resulted in good glycosylation yields for both types of donors with pentenyl glycosides being somewhat superior in terms of yield. Carbohydrate-based acceptors were reacted with a benzylated GlcNAc-pentenyl donor but only provided disaccharides in poor to moderate yields. The results show that a variety of metal triflates are capable of acting as an activator for both NIS and the intermediate oxazoline.
