Sodium Methoxide → HCID 68871740, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a suspension of ethyl (E)-3-[4-(2-hydroxybenzyl)-phenyl]acrylate (0.34 g) and 1,2,3,4,6-penta-O-acetyl-β-D-glucopyranose (1.4 g) in dichloromethane (3 mL) and toluene (9 mL) was added boron trifluoride diethyl ether complex (0.45 mL), and the mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure, and the residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (eluent: hexane/ethyl acetate=4/1) to give (E)-2-[4-(2-ethoxycarbonylvinyl)benzyl]phenyl 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-β-D-glucopyranoside (0.47 g). To the solution of the obtained (E)-2-[4-(2-ethoxycarbonylvinyl)-benzyl]phenyl 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-β-D-glucopyranoside (0.46 g) in methanol (5 mL) was added sodium methoxide (0.010 g), and the resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 30 minutes. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure, and the residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (eluent: ethyl acetate) to give (E)-2-[4-(2-ethoxycarbonylvinyl)benzyl]phenyl β-D-glucopyranoside (0.31 g).
