New acyclic apporach to 3-amino-2,3,6-trideoxy-L-hexoses: a stereocontrolled synthesis of N-benzoyl L-daunosamine
Abstract
N-Benzoyl L-daunosamine was synthesized stereoselectively starting from O-t-butyldimethylsilyl L-lactaldehyde and methyl propiolate; the crucial step, intramolecular conjugate addition of a carbamoyl amino group of methyl threo-5-carbamoyloxy-4-triethylsilyloxy-(Z)-hex-2-enoate, proceeded with exclusive 1,3-anti diastereoselectivity.
