Pd-catalyzed stereoselective synthesis of chromone C-glycosides

Abstract

Herein, we present an efficient Pd-catalysed method for stereoselective synthesis of chromone C-glycosides from various glycals. We successfully applied this method to various glycals with different protecting groups, yielding the corresponding glycosides in 41–78% yields. Additionally, we investigated the potential of this approach for the late-stage modification of natural products and pharmaceutical compounds linked to glycals, leading to the synthesis of their respective glycosides. Furthermore, we extended our research to gram-scale synthesis and demonstrated its applicability in producing various valuable products, including 2-deoxy-chromone C-glycosides. In summary, our work introduces a novel library of chromone glycosides, which holds promise for advancing drug discovery efforts.
