The ortho-alkynylbenzoates are a new type of glycosyl donors (Fig. 1), which undergo glycolsylation in the presence of a catalytic amount of a gold(I) complex. The carbohydrates for glycolsylation can be D-glucopyranose, D-glucosaminepyranose, D-galactopyranose, L-rhamnopyranose, L-arabofuranose, D-ribofuranose, etc. Other carbohydrate ortho-alkynylbenzoate donors can also be prepared according to the carbohydrate chemists’ needs through the same synthetic method.
Fig.1
Depending on the type of carbohydrates and the preparative conditions as well, a varied α:β anomer ratios of the donors are attained. Experiments showed little difference between the pair of anomers in glycosylation in accord with the glycosylation mechanism; thus the anomeric mixtures need not to be separated but can be directly used in the glycosylation reactions. For details of the methodology, see the followed references.
