An efficient route toward 2-amino-beta-D-galacto- and -glucopyranosides via stereoselective Michael-type addition of 2-nitroglycals

J Org Chem. 2009 Jul 17;74(14):5079-82. doi: 10.1021/jo900609s.

Abstract

Under the catalysis of DMAP or PPY in CH(2)Cl(2), the Michael-type addition of nucleophiles to 2-nitrogalactal or 2-nitroglucal leads in excellent yields and stereoselectivity to the corresponding beta-galacto- or -glucopyranosides, which are ready precursors to the biologically significant beta-d-galactosamine and -glucosamine units.
