title: O-Glycosylation of 4-(Substituted benzyl)-1,2-dihydro-3H-pyrazol-3-one Derivatives with 2,3,4,6-Tetra-O-acyl-α-D-glucopyranosyl Bromide via N1-Acetylation of the Pyrazole Ring.
abstract: A practical preparation of 4-(substituted benzyl)-3-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acyl-β-D-glucopyranosyloxy)-1H-pyrazole derivative 2 is described. O-Glycosylation of 4-(substituted benzyl)-1,2-dihydro-3H-pyrazol-3-one derivative 3 was facilitated by introduction of electron-withdrawing substituents, such as an acetyl group, at the N1-position of the pyrazole ring. 1-Acetyl-4-(substituted benzyl)-1,2-dihydro-3H-pyrazol-3-one 10 reacted with 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acyl-α-D-glucopyranosyl bromide 5 in the presence of potassium carbonate in acetonitrile to provide the 1-acetyl-4-(substituted benzyl)-3-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acyl-β-D-glucopyranosyloxy)-1H-pyrazole derivative 11 in high yield. When 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-pivaloyl-α-D-glucopyranosyl bromide (5b) was used as a glycosyl donor, the resulting O-glycosylated product 11 was N1-deacetylated in the presence of potassium bicarbonate in methanol without unfavorable deprotection of the glycosyl moiety to provide 2 in excellent yield. The synthetic intermediate 2b of Remogliflozin etabonate (1b) was synthesized using this strategy.
