RESUMO
In this note, an hydrozirconation/bromination/Michaelis-Arbuzov sequence was developped to introduce a trimethylene phosphonate unit on ketopyranosides. Performed on polyfunctional substrates bearing orthogonal protecting groups, this new approach provided a straightforward entry towards a large diversity of glycophosphomimetics having a quaternary anomeric position.

Following our work on the C-H functionalization of carbohydrates by the 1,5 insertion of metal-carbenes, we report herein the robust and scalable conversion of sugar γ-lactones into highly valuable glycosides having a quaternary anomeric position substituted by an allyl chain ready for further functionalization. A divergent synthetic approach furthermore provided a straightforward access to ketopyranosides with a large chemo- and stereodiversity at position 2.
RESUMO
The Nrf2/heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) axis affords significant protection against oxidative stress and cellular damage. We synthesized a series of cobalt-based hybrid molecules (HYCOs) that combine an Nrf2 inducer with a releaser of carbon monoxide (CO), an anti-inflammatory product of HO-1. Two HYCOs markedly increased Nrf2/HO-1 expression, liberated CO and exerted anti-inflammatory activity in vitro. HYCOs also up-regulated tissue HO-1 and delivered CO in blood after administration in vivo, supporting their potential use against inflammatory conditions.
