ChemInform Abstract: Gold‐Catalyzed Glycosylation Reaction Using an Easily Accessible Leaving Group.

Abstract

Group. -Glucose, mannose, and galactose esterified with dipropargylcyanoacetic acid are transformed with various nucleophiles, including alcohols, thiols, and silyl derivatives, to form the corresponding pyranosides. The products are obtained in moderate to high yields and with marginal to excellent -selectivity. -(KOPPOLU, S. R.; NIDDANA, R.; BALAMURUGAN*, R.; Org. Biomol.
