Abstract |
Phthalimido기와 2,2,2-trichloroethyl기는 acetic acid와 같은 산성용매에서 zine dust에 의하여 각각 3-hydroxyphthalimidino기로 환원 되거나 혹은 환원분해된다. 그러나 THF-pH 4.5 buffer 혼합용매를 사용하므로써, free carboxylic acid가 존재하지 않는 경우, phthalimido는 환원시키지 않고 2,2,2-trichloroethyl기만을 선택적으로 환원분해시킬 수 있음을 발견하였다. 따라서 2,2,2-trichloroethyl 3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-2-deoxy-2-phthalimido-β-D-glucopyranose (5)를 좋은 수득율로 얻을 수 있었다. In acidic media such as aqueous acetic acid, phthalimide is reduced with zinc dust to give 3-hydroxyphthalimidine while the 2,2,2-trichloroethyl esters or glycosides are reductively cleaved. However, it has been discovered that, by employing a mixture of THF and pH 4.5 buffer solution as a solvent, 2,2,2-trichloroethyl group can be selectively removed with activated zinc dust in the presence of phthalimido function, provided that the reactant or the product does not have any free carboxylic acid function. By applying the above methods, reaction of 2,2,2-trichloroethyl 3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-2-deoxy-2-phthalimido-β-D-glucopyranoside (1) with activated zinc dust gave a good yield of 3,4, 6-tri-O-acetyl-2-deoxy-2-phthalimido-β-D-glucopyranose (5) in THF-buffer solution, and 3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-2-deoxy-2-(3-hydroxyphthalimidino)-β-D-glucopyranose (6) in aqueous acetic acid. |
