Article Abstract
New carbonyl sulfoxonium ylide glyco-reagents have been developed, enabling the synthesis of versatile heteroarene C-glycosides through a Ru-catalyzed C-H activation/annulation strategy. These reactions tolerate various saccharide donors and represent a significant advance in the stereoselective synthesis of heterocyclic C-glycosides. Furthermore, the strategy and methods could be applied to large-scale reactions and late-stage modifications of some structurally complex natural products or drugs.

Ketonyl -glycosides, a vital subclass of alkyl -glycosides, play essential roles in drug discovery, biochemistry, and materials sciences. However, a practical strategy that merges bench-stable glycosyl donors with styrenes-a ubiquitous class of synthetic building blocks-remains elusive. Herein, we report a simple and general approach for synthesizing ketonyl -glycosides.

ConspectusOxygen-containing heterocycles are increasingly recognized for their biological significance, especially in the field of drug discovery. Therefore, the enantioselective synthesis of oxygen-containing heterocycles has attracted great attention in the past few decades, and many ingenious synthetic strategies have been developed. Despite remarkable progress, they are often limited in terms of the diversity of target scaffolds, accessibility of starting materials, substrate scope, and stereoselectivity.

Late-stage functionalization (LSF) is a crucial strategy in drug discovery, allowing the modification of complex molecules, including pharmaceuticals, to enhance chemical diversity in drug libraries. We harness the chemoselectivity of sulfenylcarbenes, which selectively react with alkenes even in the presence of more reactive functional groups such as alcohols, carboxylic acids, and amines. This reactivity allows sulfenylcarbenes to insert a single carbon atom bearing diverse functional groups, transforming pyrroles, indoles, and imidazoles into synthetically challenging pyridines, quinolines, and pyrimidines, respectively.

Carbohydrates constitute an important class of biologically relevant natural products. Among the synthetic glycomimetics, glycosides are particularly interesting due to their chemical and metabolic stability toward acidic and enzymatic hydrolysis at the anomeric position. The stereochemical outcomes of traditional methodologies to access glycosides rely heavily on substrate control.

A novel strategy for the synthesis of 2-glycosyl-quinazolines and 5-glycosyl-pyrazolo[1,2-]cinnolines has been established through an Ir-catalyzed C-H activation/annulation process. This approach features mild reaction conditions, exhibits good tolerance to diverse functional groups, and facilitates the stereoselective construction of heterocyclic -glycosides. Significantly, this method is amenable to the late-stage modification of structurally intricate natural products, thus holding great potential in the field of organic synthesis and pharmaceutical chemistry.
