“…Next, the regioselective cycloadditions were done under the improved copper(I)-catalyzed conditions which allowed the clean formation of the 1,4-regioisomers. [28] Thus, addition of an aqueous solution of copper(II) sulfate-sodium ascorbate to a mixture of disaccharide 3 and alkynes 4, 5, [29] or 6 (1.2 equiv) in tert-butanol/water (v/v 1:1) at room temperature, resulted in the clean formation of the 1,4-regioisomers 7, 9, and 10, respectively. As the reactions were carried out at room temperature, the reactions between 3 and propargyl alcohol 4 or N-Boc-propargylamine 5 were complete after 16-18 h, providing 7 and 9 in good yields (80 % and 89 %, respectively).…”
