The natural all d- and/or unnatural all l-1,4- and 1,6-oligosaccharides were synthesized from furan alcohols using a palladium-catalyzed glycosylation reaction. The 1,4- and 1,6-alpha-manno-disaccharides were achieved in seven total steps starting from chiral furan alcohols. Similarly, 1,4- and 1,6-alpha-manno-trisaccharides were also synthesized in nine total steps. Key to the overall efficiency of this process was the use of highly diastereoselective palladium-catalyzed glycosylations, reductions, and dihydroxylations.

Palladium-Catalyzed Stereospecific Glycosylation Enables Divergent Synthesis of N-O-Linked Glycosides.

Org Lett

January 2025

Chongqing Key Laboratory of Natural Product Synthesis and Drug Research, Chemical Biology Research Center, School of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Chongqing University, Chongqing 401331, People's Republic of China.

We present a versatile palladium-catalyzed glycosylation platform that enables facile access to structurally diverse N-O-linked glycosides with constantly excellent regio- and stereoselectivities. Importantly, this approach offers a broad substrate scope, low catalyst loadings, and outstanding chemoselectivity, allowing for the selective reaction of oximes/hydroximic acids over hydroxyl groups that would otherwise pose challenges in conventional glycosylation methods. The synthetic utility of this method is further exemplified through a range of synthetic transformations and late-stage modification of bioactive molecules.

De novo asymmetric synthesis of the pyranoses-from monosaccharides to oligosaccharides: An update.

Adv Carbohydr Chem Biochem

November 2024

Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology, Northeastern University, Boston, Massachusetts, USA.

The various methods for the de novo asymmetric synthesis of the pyranose sugars are surveyed in this update of the 2013 Advances in Carbohydrate Chemistry and Biochemistry review. The survey begins with a general overview of the various de novo approaches to carbohydrates and defines the use of asymmetric catalysis for the de novo asymmetric synthesis of pyranoses. Next the application to pyranose-containing oligosaccharides is introduced via the use of a palladium-mediated glycosylation.

Herein we developed a palladium-catalyzed coupling of 2,3-enopyranose with arylboronic acid using a removable oxyacetamide directing group, which provides an efficient method for the synthesis of C-2 aryl sugars. The synthesized products were subsequently utilized as glycosyl donors in / glycosylation, enabling regio- and stereoselective production of 1,2-disubstituted branched sugars.

Herein, we describe a stereoretentive palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling between the in situ-generated glycosyl thiolate anion and diverse (hetero)aryl iodides at room temperature for creating the library of (hetero)aryl thioglycosides. The key to success is the judicious pairing of bis-electrophilic-nucleophilic partners with a variety of thioesters in an atom-economical way in which both the glycosyl thiolate anion and the acylium cation are incorporated into the final analogue. The advantage of this method is the acyl transfer on various nucleophilic partners, including a hydroxyl, a primary or secondary amine, an amino acid, and the biologically active hSGLT1 inhibitor.
