Reversal of asymmetric induction in stereoselective strecker synthesis on galactosyl amine as the chiral matrix

Abstract The reversal of the direction of asymmetric induction in Lewis acid catalyzed Strecker synthesis using the 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-pivaloyl-β-D-galactopyranosyl amine 1 is described. In isopropanol or tetrahydrofuran 1 had given ( R )-diastereomers of the corresponding α-amino nitriles preferably. However, in chloroform in the presence of heterogeneous zinc chloride the same auxiliary alternatively leads to an excess of the ( S )-diastereomers.

ChemInform Abstract: Carbohydrates as Chiral Templates: Diastereoselective Ugi Synthesis of (S)-Amino Acids Using O-Acylated D-Arabinopyranosylamine as the Auxiliary.

Abstract Enantiomerically pure (S)-amino acids are synthesized via a highly diastereoselective Ugi reaction using 2,3,4-tri-O-pivaloyl-α-D-arabinopyranosylamine as the chiral template.

Stereoselective glycosylation of Alcohols and Silyl Ethers Using Glycosyl Fluorides and Boron Trifluoride Etherate

The stereoselective glycosylation of alcohols and their silyl ethers has been achieved using O-alkyl-, O-acyl-, and acetal-protected glycosyl fluorides of the pyranose and furanose series and boron trifluoride etherate in CH2Cl2.
