Abstract

The use of Kdo thioglycosides as glycosyl donors using DMTST, IBr/AgOTf and NIS/AgOTf as promoters has been evaluated. Activation at low temperature allowed to escape the formation of 2,3-glycal byproducts to give glycosides in high yield and with good β-anomeric selectivity. The use of diethyl ether as solvent and (especially) isopropylidene acetals as protecting groups improved the α-anomeric selectivity. NIS/AgOTf as promoter surprisingly yielded the 3-iodo-product via the glycal intermediate.
