Development of a Novel Sugar Linkage: 6,6′‐Ether‐Connected Sugars

Abstract: Unusual sugar dimers: The synthesis of 6,6′‐ether‐connected pyranoses by an acetalization–reduction procedure is described (see scheme). Structure–activity‐relationship studies of these novel carbohydrate dimers suggested that the natural product coyolosa, which has been shown to have a significant effect on fasting blood‐glucose levels, may have a different structure from the one previously reported.

“…We have therefore investigated a novel synthesis of 6,6¢ether-linked pyranoses through an acetalization-reduction procedure. 3 While this approach was successfully applied to the synthesis of various new ether-linked sugars, 4 we continued to examine an alternative method by which an ether linkage could be introduced at other positions of pyranoses. Herein, we describe a new synthesis of etherlinked sugar by regiospecific nucleophilic opening of carbohydrate oxiranes.…”

“…The ring-opening reaction of carbohydrate oxirane with strong anionic nucleophiles (e.g., N 3 -) has been investigated with great interest. 8 However, the use of weakly nucleophilic reagents has not been fully established.…”

“…Vasella et al aimed at C -mannosides, replacing the anomeric oxygen by a methylene group, and prepared analogues 4 [ 12 ] and 5 [ 13 ] ( Figure 1 ). We also considered the guanofosfocin analogue 6 of interest, in analogy to other, stable ether-linked pseudo-disaccharides [ 14 , 15 , 16 ] and report a synthesis of this ether-linked pseudo-disaccharide containing an 8-alkylated guanine.…”
