Aureolic acid antibiotics: synthesis of model 2-deoxy-β-glycosides of α-hydroxytetralone
Abstract
Glucals have been reacted with the naphthylsulphenate ester of 2-hydroxytetralone to afford 2-thio-β-glycosides, which are treated with Raney Ni to produce 2-deoxy-β-glycosides as models for the aureolic acid antibiotics.
