Abstract

The total synthesis of alpha-C-mannosyltryptophan (C-Man-Trp), a naturally occurring C-glycosylamino acid, was achieved from a commercially available alpha-methyl-D-mannoside in 10 steps including the following key steps: the C-glycosidation of a mannose derivative with a stannylacetylene, Castro indole synthesis, and Sc(ClO4)3-promoted coupling with L-serine-derived aziridine carboxylate. The glucose- and galactose-analogues of C-Man-Trp were also synthesized in a similar manner. Conformational analyses of the synthesized C-glycosyltryptophan and its synthetic intermediate are briefly discussed.
