Stereoselective synthesis of (+)-5-thiosucrose and (+)-5-thioisosucrose.

ABSTRACT: (+)-5-Thiosucrose 1, a novel isosteric sulfur analog of sucrose, was synthesized stereoselectively for the first time via indirect β-d-fructofuranosidation involving selective β-d-psicofuranosidation, followed by stereo-inversion of the secondary hydroxy group at the C-3 position on the furanose ring. Glycosidation of protected 5-thio-d-glucose with a d-psicofuranosyl donor provided β-d-psicofuranosyl 5-thio-α-d-glucopyranoside and that with d-fructofuranosyl donor gave α-d-fructofuranosyl 5-thio-α-d-glucopyranoside. Two anomeric stereocenters of the glycosyl donor and acceptor were controlled correctly to provide a single disaccharide among four possible anomeric isomers in the glycosylation. Conversion of the resulting disaccharides afforded (+)-5-thiosucrose 1 and (+)-5-thioisosu
