Abstract
We report a copper-catalyzed glycosylation protocol utilizing 2-(para-methoxyphenylethynyl)-1,4-naphthoquinone-3-thioglycosides (NQTs) as effective glycosyl donors. These novel donors, characterized by a naphthoquinone scaffold, enable rapid and efficient preparation through a one-pot, two-step synthesis. Additionally, they are efficiently activated by cost-effective Cu(II) salts, facilitating glycosylation with a broad range of substrates. The practicality of NQT donors is further demonstrated by their compatibility with latent-active glycosylation strategies and their applicability in the versatile one-pot synthesis of saccharides.
期刊介绍:
Organic Letters invites original reports of fundamental research in all branches of the theory and practice of organic, physical organic, organometallic,medicinal, and bioorganic chemistry. Organic Letters provides rapid disclosure of the key elements of significant studies that are of interest to a large portion of the organic community. In selecting manuscripts for publication, the Editors place emphasis on the originality, quality and wide interest of the work. Authors should provide enough background information to place the new disclosure in context and to justify the rapid publication format. Back-to-back Letters will be considered. Full details should be reserved for an Article, which should appear in due course.
