Synthesis of New Glycosylamine Derivatives based on Carbohydrates

Abstract

Background: Glycosylamine play an important role in living organisms. Most plants store their chemical resources in the form of inactive glycosides, which are broken down and con-verted into sugar in the body of herbivores by hydrolyzing enzymes. Glycosylamine are obtained from the secondary metabolism of plants and consist of two parts. One part of it contains sugar like glucose and is inactive in most substances, and has a good effect on the solubility of the glycosyla-mine derivatives and its absorption and even its transfer from one organ to another. The therapeutic effect is related to the second part, which is called aglycan (or aglucan). Glycosylamine derivatives form a large group of valuable medicinal substances, which at the same time include some of the most dangerous and toxic substances in nature. These substances are present in many groups of flowering plants. Glycosides are made in different ways in different metabolic pathways. These materials have a complex and special chemical structure and leave special effects on the human body. Glycosylamine derivatives are called O-glycosid, N-glycosid, S-glycosid in terms of atoms coupling to anomeric carbon. Carbohydrate esterification reaction to prepare new glycosylamine derivatives is one of the most important carbohydrate reactions. The anomeric position of carbohy-drates with strong leaving groups is very important for the preparation of glycosides. Preparation of glycosylamine derivatives based on acetylated carbohydrates is the main purpose of this article. Dif-ferent carbohydrates were acetylated under mild conditions and high yields. The anomeric position was deacetylated by a magnesium oxide heterogeneous catalyst in methanol solvent. In order to pre-pare new glycosides acetylated/ deacytylated carbohydrate reacted with N-Methyl-(naphtha-2-ylmethoxy)amine. The final product was identified by various spectroscopic methods. Methods: Anhydrous sodium acetate (4 g) and α-D-glucose (28 mg, 5 g) were mixed. The mixture was transferred to a 200 ml Round-bottom flask . Acetic acid (260 mg, 25 ml) was added to the reaction mixture. The reaction mixture was heated in a boiling water bath for 2 h until complete dissolution of the glucose. Then 100 ml of ice was added. After 1 hour, White crystals formed and were washed with cold water. And then 1 mol of glucose pentaacetate per 50 ml of methanol was dissolved by a magnetic stirrer. After thatMgO (0.2gr) was added to the reaction mixture. The re-action mixture was refluxed at room temperature within 4-5 hours. After 5 hours, the solvent was removed and separated by chromatography. It is then washed with hexane and crystallized by ether-hexane. And the final step reacted with N-Methyl- (naphtha-2-ylmethoxy) amine in order to prepare new glycosylamine derivatives. Results: Magnesium oxide in methanol solvent is one of the best effective catalysts in the deacetyla-tion of the anomer position of acetylated carbohydrates. It is done under ambient temperature and in very easy conditions and makes carbohydrates susceptible to extensive chemical reactions. One of these reactions is the formation of glycosides. Various carbohydrates are acetylated by acetic anhy-dride in the presence of sodium acetate, and the anomeric position is deacetylated by a heterogeneous catalyst. In order to prepare N-glycoside, the glycosides are reacted with N-alkoxy N-methylglycosyl amine. The final products are identified by various spectroscopic methods. Conclusion: Glucose, mannose, for example, were acetylated by acetic anhydride in the presence of sodium acetate. And the anomeric position of pentaacetate glucose was selectively deacetylated with magnesium oxide in a methanol solvent. Then, the reaction for the preparation of glycosylamine de-rivatives was carried out under very mild and easy conditions. The aminoglycosides synthesized in this article are used as raw materials for the synthesis of a wide range of antibacterials.
