Hydrochloric Acid → 1-(beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-4-chloro-3-(5-(4-ethoxycarbonylphenyl)-2-thienylmethyl)benzene

Participants

Reaction Steps

The above 1-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-β-D-glucopyranosyl)-4-chloro-3-(5-(4-cyanophenyl)-2-thienylmethyl)benzene (128 mg) was suspended in ethanol (2 ml) and added thereto was a concentrated hydrochloric acid aqueous solution (1 ml). The mixture was heated reflux for 8.5 hours. The reaction solution was cooled and diluted with ethyl acetate and water. The organic layer was washed with water and successively washed with brine. After drying over magnesium sulfate, the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (chloroform:methanol=9:1) to give the desired 1-(β-D-glucopyranosyl)-4-chloro-3-(5-(4-ethoxycarbonylphenyl)-2-thienylmethyl)benzene (39 mg) as pale yellow foam. APCI-Mass m/Z 536/538 (M+NH4).
