title: Synthesis of C-linked glycopyranosyl serines via a chiral glycine enolate equivalent.
abstract: [formula: see text] The stereoselective preparation of C-linked D-gluco- and D-galactopyranosyl L-serines in their alpha and beta forms is herein reported. The syntheses require the conversion of the allyl C-glycopyranosides into their iodoethyl derivatives, which then undergo substitution with the Williams' chiral glycine enolate equivalent. Deprotection and acetylation affords Boc-protected amino acids for peptide synthesis.
