Abstract:
In the Rh(2)(OAc)(4)-catalyzed amidoglycosylation of glucal 3-carbamates, anomeric stereoselectivity and the extent of competing C3-H oxidation depend on the 4O and 6O protecting groups. Acyclic protection permits high alpha-anomer selectivity with further improvement in less polar solvents, while electron-withdrawing protecting groups limit C3-oxidized byproducts. Stereocontrol and bifurcation between alkene insertion and C3-H oxidation reflect an interplay of conformational, stereoelectronic, and inductive factors.
