Resumen

A method for the selective activation of thioglycosides that uses the N+-thiophilic reagent Omesitylenesulfonylhydroxylamine (MSH) as a promoter is presented. The reaction proceeds via anomeric mesitylensulfonate intermediates, which could be isolated and fully characterized by placing a fluorine atom at the C2 position. In the presence of a soft Lewis acid, glycosylation reaction proceeds at ambient temperature with good yields. It is further demonstrated that it is possible to orthogonally activate S-ethyl in the presence of S-phenyl donors, enabling the design of sequential glycosylation strategies. © 2017 American Chemical Society.
