Synthesis of methyl 6''-deoxy-6'-fluoro-alpha-isomaltoside and of the corresponding trisaccharide.
Methyl 6-O-(6-O-acetyl-2,3,4-tri-O-benzyl-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl)-2,3,4-tri- O-benzyl-alpha-D-glucopyranoside (5) was formed with high stereoselectivity when the condensation of methyl 2,3,4-tri-O-benzyl-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl (1) with 6-O-acetyl-2,3,4-tri-O-benzyl-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl chloride in ether was promoted with silver perchlorate in the presence of 2,4,6-trimethylpyridine. O-Deacetylation of 5, followed by treatment of the formed 6, containing only HO-6' unsubstituted, with diethylaminosulfur trifluoride (DAST) or dimethylaminosulfur trifluoride (methyl DAST) gave the per-O-benzyl derivative (9) of methyl 6'-deoxy-6'-fluoro-alpha-isomaltoside. Compound 9 was also obtained by condensation of 1 with 2,3,4-tri-O-benzyl-6-deoxy-6-fluoro-beta-D-glucopyranosyl fluoride (4) in the presence of silver perchlorate and anhydrous stannous chloride. The fully benzylated methyl alpha-glycoside (15) of 6-deoxy-6-fluoro-isomaltotriose, was obtained by condensation of 6 with 4. Hydrogenolysis of 9 and 15 gave the methyl alpha-glycosides of isomaltose and isomaltotriose fluorinated at C-6 of their (nonreducing) D-glucosyl group. Fluoride-ion displacements involving DAST and methyl DAST gave practically identical results, but mixtures arising from reactions involving the latter reagent were lighter-colored and easier to resolve by chromatography. The isolation of methyl alpha-glycosides of 6'-deoxy-6'-fluorogentiobiose and of 6'-O-(6-deoxy-6-fluoro-beta-D-glucopyranosyl) isomaltose is also described.
