Abstract

On hydrazinolysis in 1:4 acetic acid-pyridine, and in pyridine, partial O-deacylation of fully acylated methyl glycosides and some other glycosyl compounds (23 compounds) was found to be induced, to give, in good yields, products bearing one free hydroxyl group; the results obtained indicated that, among the primary and secondary O-acyl groups, the 2- O-acyl groups were, in general, the most labile toward the nucleophile (hydrazine). Hydrazinolysis of 1,2- O-isopropylidenealdofuranose acylates (3 compounds), on the other hand, gave, in high yield, the corresponding monoacyl derivatives having the protecting group on their primary hydroxyl group. The factors possibly involved in the regioselectivity of the hydrazinolysis were discussed.
