Acetic Acid → 1-(beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-3-(5-(4-carboxyphenyl)-2-thienylmethyl)-4-chlorobenzene

Participants

Reaction Steps

1-(2,3,4,6-Tetra-O-acetyl-β-D-glucopyranosyl)-4-chloro-3-(5-(4-cyanophenyl)-2-thienylmethyl)benzene (128 mg) obtained in Example 191-(1) was dissolved in acetic acid (2 ml) and added thereto was a concentrated hydrochloric acid aqueous solution (2 ml). The mixture was refluxed for 6.5 hours. To the mixture was added a 10% aqueous sodium hydroxide solution at 0° C., and the mixture was washed with ethyl acetate. The aqueous layer was acidified by adding concentrated hydrochloric acid, and extracted with a mixture of ethyl acetate and tetrahydrofuran. The extract was dried over magnesium sulfate, and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by washing with a mixture of ethyl acetate and diethyl ether to give the desired 1-(β-D-glucopyranosyl)-3-(5-(4-carboxyphenyl)-2-thienylmethyl)-4-chlorobenzene (49 mg) as pale brown powder. ESI-Mass m/Z 489/491 (M−H).
