Abstract:A carbohydrate-derived optically active P-chiral dioxophenylphospholane-borane complex, C(27)H(32)BO(6)P, was prepared from bis(diethylamino)phenylphosphine and methyl 2,6-di-O-benzyl-beta-D-galactopyranoside. The phosphinite was prepared with high diastereoselectivity and in good yield. The absolute configuration (R) at the P atom was deduced from the known configuration of the sugar moiety. Weak intermolecular interactions link the molecules into a three-dimensional network.
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.
