RESUMO
We demonstrate here that strained and sterically hindered protonated 2,4,6-tri-tert-butylpyridinium (TTBPy) tetrafluoroborate, a crystalline, bench stable salt serves as a mild and efficient organocatalyst for the SN2 type displacement of glycosyl trichloroacetimidates toward the stereoselective synthesis of both α- and ß-glycosides. The strained ion-pair interactions between the sterically hindered pyridinium cation and the tetrafluoroborate anion infuse unusual reactivity to the ions resulting in the unique anion assisted activation of alcohol. This mild activation of alcohol facilitates the SN2 type displacement of glycosyl α-trichloroacetimidates into ß-glycosides in a highly diastereoselective manner. These unique interactions were established based on extensive infrared and 1H, 19F, 11B NMR studies and theoretical studies.
RESUMO
The influence of various silyl protecting groups on 2-deoxyrhamnosylation using 2-deoxyrhamnosyl acetates, thioglycosides, and (p-methoxyphenyl)vinylbenzoate (PMPVB) donors has been presented. C-Glycosylation reactions reveal that tert-butyldimethylsilyl (TBDMS), triisopropylsilyl (TIPS), and tert-butyldiphenylsilyl (TBDPS) silyl protected rhamnosyl oxocarbenium ions have no facial selectivity except for the conformationally (4H3) locked tetraisopropyldisiloxane (TIPDS) protected rhamnose donor, which provides complete α-selectivity. However, TBDPS protected rhamnosyl donors are found to be superior protecting groups for α-stereoselective O-glycosylation reactions with various acceptors. The observed results are found consistent across donors and donor activation conditions. Most importantly, the study was conducted at room temperature unlike the other energy-intensive low-temperature studies and was bound to have more practical utility. The outcomes have been explained using kinetic and thermodynamic analyses.

2-Deoxy glycosyl ortho-[1-(p-MeOPhenyl)Vinyl]Benzoates (PMPVB) have been presented as stable, reactive glycosyl donors for the synthesis of 2-deoxy α-glycosides. The donors react under Brønsted acid conditions to provide the 2-deoxy-α-glycosides with very high stereocontrol. The observed high stereoselectivities were discussed with respect to the relative free energy differences between the anomeric reactive intermediates.
