Abstract

Michael-type addition of enamino esters to 3,4,6-tri-O-benzyl-2-nitro-d-glucal under solvent-free conditions formed C-glycosides in excellent yields with high stereoselectivity. Reduction of the nitro group afforded the corresponding bicyclic 2-amino C-glycosides.

Key words

solvent-free - C-glycosides - Michael-type addition

General experimental procedure: A mixture of 2-nitro-d-glucal 1 (1.0 mmol) and enamino ester 2 (1.2 mmol) was heated to the specified temperature in a silicone oil bath, as indicated in Table 1. The progress of the reaction was monitored by TLC. Upon completion, the reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and purified by column chromatography using a mixture of ethyl acetate and petroleum ether as the eluent to furnish the target product.
