K. Gotanda et al., Efficient stereoselective synthesis of alpha-C-glycopyranosides using 2,2 '-azobis(2,4-dimethyl-4-methoxyvaleronitrile) [V-70], TETRAHEDRON, 55(34), 1999, pp. 10315-10324
Efficient synthesis of alpha-C-glycopyranosides through a radical addition
reaction using 2.2'-azobis(2,4-dimethyl-4-methoxyvaleronitrile) [V-70] as a
n initiator under mild condition was developed. This method made it possibl
e to completely control the stereocenter at the anomeric position and obtai
n only the alpha-anomer in high yield compared with AIBN, Et3B, and photo i
rradiation methods. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
