Potassium Carbonate → HCID 58786151, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Boron trifluoride-diethyl ether complex (0.6 ml) and triethylsilane (1.7 ml) were added dropwise to a solution of 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-benzyl-1-C-(2-ethoxy-5-methylphenyl)-D-glucopyranose (3.5 g) at −50° C. and the mixture was stirred for two hours. Saturated aqueous solution of potassium carbonate was added to the reaction mixture and the mixture was extracted with chloroform. The organic layer was washed with saturated brine and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. After filtration, the filtrate was concentrated. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (hexane-ethyl acetate) to obtain (1S)-1,5-anhydro-2,3,4,6-tetra-O-benzyl-1-(2-ethoxy-5-methylphenyl)-D-glucitol (3.4 g).
