Carbohydrate-based lactones: synthesis and applications.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The synthesis and uses of different kinds of carbohydrate-based lactones are described. This group of compounds includes aldonolactones, other related monocyclic lactones and bicyclic systems. The latter can arise from uronic acids, carboxymethyl ethers or glycosides, or from C-branched sugars.

A short and practical synthesis of two Hagen's gland lactones.
A seven-step total synthesis of Hagen's gland lactones 1 and 2 starting from 1,2-O-isopropylidene-alpha-D-xylofuranose 3 is reported. The success of this short and practical synthesis depends on the use of two key reactions: a stereoselective nucleophilic substitution at the anomeric position of 5 and 6, which allowed the construction of the gamma-lactone ring, and an alkyl substitution reactio...
متن کاملSynthesis of a tetrasaccharide fragment of mycobacterial arabinogalactan.
The arabinogalactan of mycobacteria contains both monosaccharides in the furanose ring form, which are absent in mammals. We report here the first synthesis of the tetrasaccharide fragment alpha-D-Araf-(1-->5)-beta-D-Galf-(1-->5)-beta-D-Galf-(1-->6)-D-Galf, conveniently derivatized for further elongation. The strategy relied on the use of suitably substituted D-galactono-1,4-lactones as precurs...
متن کاملSnCl4/nano-sawdust as an Efficient Bio-based Catalyst for the Synthesis of 2-Substituted Benzothiazoles and Benzimidazoles
SnCl4/nano-sawdust was prepared as a carbohydrate-based catalyst containing of tin bearing cellulose units. The catalyst was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The catalyst was applied successfully as a readily available, inexpensive, biodeg...
متن کاملReduction of sugar lactones to hemiacetals with lithium triethylborohydride.
Reduction of ribono-1,4-lactones and gulono-1,4-lactone as well as ribono-1,5-lactone and glucono-1,5-lactones with LTBH (1.2 equiv.) in CH2Cl2 at 0 °C for 30 min provided the corresponding pentose or hexose hemiacetals in high yields. Commonly used in carbohydrate chemistry protecting groups such as trityl, benzyl, silyl, acetals and to some extent acyls are compatible with this reduction.
متن کاملSynthesis of oxygen heterocycles via alkynyltungsten compounds*
This short review article covers some useful applications of alkynyltungsten compounds to the syntheses of complex lactones. Two types of cyclizations will be emphasized: (1) cycloalkenylation of tungsten-alkynol compounds with aldehydes to give α-alkylidene oxacarbeniums, further leading to α-alkylidene lactones and (2) intramolecular [3+2]-cycloaddition of epoxides to give bicyclic lactones. ...
