Reaction Steps

To 20 ml. of a 50% aqueous acetone solution were added 2.92 g. of 2,3,4-tri-O-acetyl-1-thio-β-D-xylopyranoside (17) and 1.79 g. of n-heptyl bromide. To the solution was further added 1.38 g. of potassium carbonate and then a boiling under reflux was carried out for one hour. After completion of the reaction, the solution was neutralized with acetic acid, extracted with chloroform washed with water, and dried. The used solvent was distilled away to obtain 2.55 g. of colorless oily n-heptyl 2,3,4-tri-O-acetyl-1-thio-β-D-xylopyranoside (18). The yield was 65.3%.
