title: Synthesis of 3,7-anhydro-D-glycero-D-ido-octitol 1,5,6-trisphosphate as an IP(3) receptor ligand using a radical cyclization reaction with a vinylsilyl tether as the key step. Conformational restriction strategy using steric repulsion between adjacent bulky protecting groups on a pyranose ring
abstract: 3,7-Anhydro-D-glycero-D-ido-octitol 1,5,6-trisphosphate (5) was designed as a novel IP(3)-receptor ligand having a C-glycosidic structure and was synthesized via a radical cyclization reaction with a temporary connecting vinylsilyl tether as the key step. The phenyl 2-O-dimethylvinylsilyl-3,4, 6-tri-O-benzyl-1-seleno-beta-D-glucopyranoside (7), in the usual (4)C(1)-conformation, was successively treated with Bu(3)SnH/AIBN and under Tamao oxidation conditions to give a mixture of five C-glycosidic products. On the other hand, similar successive treatment of the corresponding 3,4-di-O-TBS-protected substrates 13 and 24, which were in an unusual (1)C(4)-conformaion due to the steric repulsion between the bulky silyl protecting groups, gave the desired 1alpha-C-glycosides 18 and 25, respectively, as the major products. Thus, the course of the radical cyclization was effectively controlled by a change in the conformation of the pyranose ring into a (1)C(4)-form due to steric repulsion between the adjacent bulky TBS-protecting groups at the 3- and 4-hydroxyl groups. From 25, the target 5 was synthesized via phosphorylation of the hydroxyls by the phosphoramidite method. The C-glycoside trisphosphate 5 has significant binding affinity for IP(3) receptor of calf cerebella.
