RESUMO
C-Oligosaccharides are metabolically stable surrogates of native glycans containing O/N/S-glycosidic linkages and thus have therapeutic potential. Here we report a straightforward approach to the synthesis of vinyl C-linked oligosaccharides via the Ni-catalyzed reductive hydroglycosylation of alkynyl glycosides with glycosyl bromides.
RESUMO
The synthesis of neopetrosins A and C, two 2-indolyl C-α-d-mannopyranosides, and their congeners has been realized via a direct Ni/photoredox-catalyzed reductive coupling of 3-methoxycarbonyl-2-iodo-1H-indoles with pyranosyl bromides.
RESUMO
C-Glycosyl peptides/proteins are metabolically stable mimics of the native glycopeptides/proteins bearing O/N-glycosidic linkages, and are thus of great therapeutical potential. Herein, we disclose a protocol for the syntheses of vinyl C-glycosyl amino acids and peptides, employing a nickel-catalyzed reductive hydroglycosylation reaction of alkyne derivatives of amino acids and peptides with common glycosyl bromides. It accommodates a wide scope of the coupling partners, including complex oligosaccharide and peptide substrates. The resultant vinyl C-glycosyl amino acids and peptides, which bear common O/N-protecting groups, are amenable to further transformations, including elongation of the peptide and saccharide chains.
