Abstract:
Herein, we report the great potential of the 4,5-dioxo-imidazolinium cation activation strategy for dehydrative glycosylation reactions employing the readily available and economical geminal dichloroimidazolidinediones (DCIDs) that promotes the glycosylation between 2-deoxy- and 2,6-dideoxy-sugar hemiacetals with various acceptors in good yields and high α-selectivity. This research not only provides a mild and efficient alternative approach for stereoselective dehydrative glycosylation but also extends the dichloroimidazolidinedione as a novel promoter in the field of glycoscience.

Aldehydes and Ketones with Water: Hydrate Formation
The formation of hydrates is a reversible reaction. Hydrate formation is influenced by steric and electronic factors accompanying the alkyl substituents on the carbonyl group: The rate of hydrate formation increases with a decrease in the number of alkyl groups attached to the carbonyl carbon. Hence,...
