T. Yokomatsu et al., Stereoselective C-glycosylation of 2,3-dideoxyribofuranosides controlled by the methylenephosphonothioate functional groups at the 3-position, HETEROCYCLE, 52(2), 2000, pp. 515-518
C-Glycosylation of 2,3-dideoxyribofuranoside (3) having a methylenephosphon
othioate functional group at the 3-position with allylic carbon-nucleophile
s was examined in the presence of a variety of Lewis acids. Good beta-selec
tivity with high chemical yield was observed upon using allyltrimethylsilan
e as a carbon nucleophile.
