In this communication, we have reported a productive and cost-effective catalytic system containing copper (I) iodide (CuI) and 4-dimethyl aminopyridine (DMAP), used for the first time in homo-and heterocoupling of stereoselective α-2-deoxy monosaccharide propargyl glycosides and α-2-deoxy disaccharide propargyl glycosides respectively in acetonitrile (MeCN) afforded the mimic oligosaccharide based conjugated 1,3-diyne derivatives upto 96 % yield under aerobic condition at room temperature. The results proved that the symmetrical homo coupling are exclusively favoured following the Glaser-Hay reaction and on other hand we have successfully synthesized the unsymmetrical heterocoupled deoxy sugar based mimic oligosaccharide products in good to excellent yield. This reaction involved mild conditions, a wide substrate scope, and excellent functional group compatibility as well as less reaction time. In this article, a library of nine novel stereoselective deoxy sugar derived symmetrical and unsymmetrical coupled products have been synthesized and structures were determined by the 1 H, 13 C & 2D NMR spectroscopy.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
