De Novo enantioselective synthesis of hexafluorinated d-glucose

De Novo enantioselective synthesis of hexafluorinated d-glucose
We report a de novo enantioselective synthesis of 2,3,4-trideoxy-2,2,3,3,4,4-hexafluoro-Dglycero-
hexopyranose (“hexafluorinated D-glucose”), an iconic polar hydrophobic glycomimetic. The
12-step synthesis features robust and reproducible chemistry and was achieved by incorporating an asymmetric dihydroxylation step to install the stereogenic center with excellent enantioselectivity (95:5 er). Virtual enantiopurity (> 99.5% ee) was further reached using a simple crystallisation procedure and the absolute confirmation was ascertained by X-ray analysis. The synthetic route also allowed the access to the novel hexafluorinated heptose derivative 2,3,4-trideoxy-2,2,3,3,4,4- hexafluoro-L-threo-heptopyranose.

Abstract

We report a de novo enantioselective synthesis of 2,3,4-trideoxy-2,2,3,3,4,4-hexafluoro-Dglycero-
hexopyranose (“hexafluorinated D-glucose”), an iconic polar hydrophobic glycomimetic. The
12-step synthesis features robust and reproducible chemistry and was achieved by incorporating an asymmetric dihydroxylation step to install the stereogenic center with excellent enantioselectivity (95:5 er). Virtual enantiopurity (> 99.5% ee) was further reached using a simple crystallisation procedure and the absolute confirmation was ascertained by X-ray analysis. The synthetic route also allowed the access to the novel hexafluorinated heptose derivative 2,3,4-trideoxy-2,2,3,3,4,4- hexafluoro-L-threo-heptopyranose.
