A general synthesis of hetaryl and aryl C-4(5) linked imidazole C-nucleoside analogues has been developed by the reaction of sugar alkynes with het(aryl) iodides, KMnO4/TBAB oxidation and CoFe2O4 NPs catalyzed muti-component coupling of the corresponding diketones, NH4OAc and aromatic aldehydes in one-pot. The sugar alkynes include pyranosides and furanosides with acid sensitive protecting groups. The het(aryl) iodides comprise iodoaromatics, iodoheterocycles, and sterically hindered iodoheteroaromatics.
Keywords: Muti-component coupling reaction; Sugar alkyne; het(aryl) imidazole C-nucleoside analogue.
