ABSTRACT: A highly efficient approach for the synthesis of 3-C-branched mono- and di-3-deoxy-D-manno-oct-2-ulosonic acid (Kdo) enyne analogues is developed for the first time based on Sonogashira coupling of terminal alkynes with 3-iodo Kdo glycal obtained by the NIS/TMSOTf-promoted one-step reaction from peracetylated Kdo ethyl ester. Further transformation of 3-C-branched mono- and di-Kdo enyne analogues by asymmetric hydrogenation and saponification provided 2-deoxy-β-carboxyl Kdo analogues in a stereocontrolled mode.

method for the direct formation of 3-iodo Kdo glycal from peracetylated Kdo esters. Furthermore, the couplings between 3-iodo Kdo glycal and coupling partners as well as the asymmetric hydrogenation of the resulting double bonds remain uncertain due to electronic and steric effects of the unique eight-carbon acidic keto-sugar skeleton. Here, we report a highly efficient method to access the 3-C-branched monoand di-Kdo enyne analogues based on Sonogashira coupling of 3-iodo Kdo glycal with a range of terminal alkynes and dialkynes. Moreover, asymmetric hydrogenation of the resulting Kdo enyne analogues over Pearlman′s catalyst followed by saponification can be effectively carried out to provide the 2deoxy-β-carboxyl Kdo analogues in a stereospecific manner. With respect to 2-iodo glycals, they were often employed as substrates of Heck, Sonogashira, and Suzuki−Miyaura coupling for the synthesis of 2-C-branched aldoses and usually prepared by a one-step reaction of glycals with NIS/AgNO3 or two-step transformations involving treatment of glycals with iodonium ion in an aqueous medium followed by elimination with Ph2SO/Tf2O.10 Thus, we envisioned that the desired tetra-Oacetyl-3-iodo Kdo glycal 3 could be synthesized by activation of Kdo glycal 2 with NIS/AgNO3. In the beginning, Kdo glycal 2 was readily prepared by the known TMSOTf (0.2 equiv)catalyzed elimination reaction of 2,4,5,7,8-penta-O-acetyl Kdo ethyl ester 1 at room temperature in 88% yield (Scheme 1).13 As expected, exposure of Kdo glycal 2 to NIS (2.8 equiv) and AgNO3 (0.8 equiv) in acetonitrile at 60 °C gave 3-iodo Kdo glycal 3 in a good yield (80%). Moreover, we found that an even higher yield (83%) of compound 3 was obtained by replacing AgNO3 with TMSOTf under the similar conditions, although almost no reaction occurred when other Lewis acids such as BF3·OEt2 and AgOTf were used for this reaction. Since TMSOTf was the common promoter for the preparation of Kdo glycal 2 and 3-iodo Kdo glycal 3, it was envisaged that the

n the family of 2-keto-3-deoxy sugar acids, 3-deoxy-D-mannooct-2-ulosonic acid (Kdo) is often found as an essential component of the inner core structures of lipopolysaccharides (LPS) in the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria.1−3 In addition to the synthesis of Kdo-containing oligosaccharides for the development of carbohydrate-based vaccines,4,5 the creation of Kdo analogues as potential therapeutic agents serves as another strategy for combating antibiotic-resistant bacteria.6 From a biosynthetic point of view, assembly of LPS is critical for the survival of bacteria and involves the Kdo metabolism via multiple enzymatic steps for subsequent attachment of Kdo to lipid A.6 Based on well-founded biochemical and NMR spectroscopic data, only a few types of Kdo analogues such as 2-deoxy-β-Kdo and its 8-amino derivatives have been found as CMP-Kdo synthetase (CKS) inhibitors, while the 2-deoxy-αKdo counterparts are not active.6−8 In view of the potential application of 2-deoxy-β-Kdo analogues as CKS inhibitors, the 2-deoxy-α-Kdo analogues are often utilized as important precursors for preparation of the corresponding β-Kdo products via the Burke′s epimerization protocol.8d,e Due to the enzymatic and chemical stability of C−C bonds, C-branched sugars have been extensively studied as sugar mimetics for exploring their biological application as inhibitors of carbohydrate-processing enzymes and modulators of biological processes.9−11 Furthermore, they can serve as important chiral synthons for constructing naturally occurring antibiotics, macrolides, and polysaccharides.12 Considering the potential use of new types of Kdo analogues for glycobiological research and complex natural product synthesis, assembly of structurally diverse C-branched Kdo analogues is very attractive. However, to the best of our knowledge, C-modification of Kdo at the nonanomeric branching points to produce 3-C-branched Kdo analogues has never been reported. In contrast to the synthesis of 2-C-branched aldoses,10 stereocontrolled synthesis of 3-Cbranched mono- and di-Kdo analogues might be quite elusive considering the absence of a hydroxyl group at the C-3 position and the presence of an electron-withdrawing carboxylic group at the C-1 position.

Scheme 3. Sonogashira Coupling of 3-Iodo Kdo Glycal 3 with Terminal Alkynes 6a−6j

one-step synthesis of 3-iodo Kdo glycal 3 could be realized from Kdo ethyl ester 1 via the glycal intermediate 2 using NIS/ TMSOTf as the promoter. Indeed, treatment of 1 with NIS (2.8 equiv) and AgNO3 (0.8 equiv) in acetonitrile at 60 °C resulted in a very clean reaction, providing 3-iodo Kdo glycal 3 in an excellent yield (90%). To procure the 3-C-branched Kdo analogues, Pd(OAc)2catalyzed Heck coupling of 3-iodo Kdo glycal 3 with methyl acrylate 4 was first attempted (Scheme 2). Although the Scheme 2. Heck Coupling of 3-Iodo Kdo Glycal 3 with Methyl Acrylate 4

synthesis of 2-C-branched diene analogues by Heck coupling of 2-iodo glucal or 2-iodo galactal with methyl acrylate could be efficiently achieved,10c the coupling reaction of 3-iodo Kdo glycal 3 with 4 under the catalysis of Pd(OAc)2 (0.3 equiv) in the presence of PPh3 (0.5 equiv) and Et3N (2 equiv) in DMF at 90 °C led to an incomplete reaction, in which the 3-C-branched Kdo diene 5 was isolated in only 53% yield and the starting material 3 was recovered in 37% yield. This result might be attributed to the influence of electronic effect of the C-1 carboxylic group in the Kdo unit. Next, we explored Sonogashira coupling of 3-iodo Kdo glycal 3 with terminal alkynes to produce the 3-C-branched Kdo enynes (Scheme 3). Employing Pd(OAc)2 (0.05 equiv) as a catalyst and Cs2CO3 (1.5 equiv) as a base,10d copper-free Sonogashira coupling of 3-iodo Kdo glycal 3 with cyclopropyl acetylene 6a in DMF at room temperature underwent a smooth reaction, affording 3-C-branched Kdo enyne 7a in 83% yield. Similarly, terminal alkynes with different alkyl chain lengths (1hexyne 6b, 1-dodecyne 6c, and 1-octadecyne 6d) were effectively coupled with compound 3 to provide 3-C-branched Kdo enynes 7b−7d in good yields (66−84%). Pd(OAc)2catalyzed Sonogashira coupling of 2-methyl-1-buten-3-yne 6e with 3 gave the corresponding 3-C-branched Kdo enyne 7e in 81% yield, without affecting the terminal double bond in the branching chain. Moreover, when terminal alkynes bearing ester, amide, and phenyl groups (methyl 5-hexynoate 6f, diethyl 2-propynylmalonate 6g, 2-phenylethylacetylene 6h, N-(4pentynyl)phthalimide 6i) were utilized as coupling partners, the coupled Kdo enynes 7f−7i could also be obtained in high

yields (79−85%). Intriguingly, Sonogashira coupling of terminal alkyne-containing steroid hormone drug levonorgestrel14 6j with 3-iodo Kdo glycal 3 proceeded smoothly to afford Kdo-levonorgestrel enyne conjugate 7j in 78% yield, paving a new way for the synthesis of carbohydrate-modified drugs. To demonstrate the feasibility of Sonogashira coupling of terminal dialkynes with 3-iodo Kdo glycal 3, dialkynes 8a−8c with different alkyl chain lengths were selected for accessing the 3-C-branched di-Kdo enynes (Scheme 4). By tuning the reaction parameters, Sonogashira coupling reactions of an excess amount of compound 3 (3 equiv) with 1,5-hexadiyne 8a, 1,7-octadiyne 8b, and 1,9-decadiyne 8c under the promotion of Pd(OAc)2 (0.3 equiv) and Cs2CO3 (5 equiv) in DMF at room temperature gave di-Kdo enynes 9a−9c in 36−78% yields, respectively, although a minor amount of mono-Kdo enynes could also be detected. With the extension of alkyl chain lengths between the terminal triple bonds in 8a−8c, the coupling yields of 9a−9c were found to be significantly improved, indicating that the steric hindrance between the two Kdo residues in the di-Kdo enynes 9a−9c might have a profound influence on the outcome of the coupling reactions. With the 3-C-branched mono- and di-Kdo enynes in hand, we then turned our attention to the hydrogenation of the C C and CC bonds on the enyne skeletons.15 Exhilaratingly, asymmetric hydrogenation of mono-Kdo enynes 7c, 7d, and 7f−7h over Pearlman′s catalyst overnight favored complete reduction of CC bonds and cis-addition to the CC bonds 6172

Asymmetric Hydrogenation of 3-C-Branched Kdo Enynes 7c, 7d, 7f−7h, and 9b groups in 7d and 9b under the basic conditions (NaOH, dioxane, MeOH, H2O, rt) afforded 3-C-branched Kdo enyne analogues 16 and 17 in good yields (75% for 16; 90% for 17), without the formation of the bicyclic byproducts that could be generated from the attack of the C-1 carboxylic group on the CC bond. Removal of all ester groups in 11 and 15 under the similar conditions furnished 2-deoxy-β-carboxyl Kdo analogues 18 and 19 in excellent yields (88% for 18; 92% for 19). In summary, we have developed a facile and efficient method for the synthesis of a series of 3-C-branched mono- and di-Kdo enyne analogues via Sonogashira coupling of 3-iodo Kdo glycal with terminal alkynes and dialkynes. One-step synthesis of 3iodo Kdo glycal from peracetylated Kdo ethyl ester in the presence of NIS/TMSOTf was achieved in an excellent yield. A three-step reaction sequence involving Sonogashira coupling, asymmetric hydrogenation, and saponification was described for efficient construction of the 2-deoxy-β-carboxyl Kdo analogues in a stereospecific fashion. The present method serves as a basis for further synthesis of the corresponding 3-Cbranched 2-deoxy-β-Kdo products as potential enzyme inhibitors.



stereocenters of 10−14 were unambiguously confirmed based on the coupling constant of H-3 and H-4 (JH‑3,H‑4 < 6.0 Hz) and the observed NOE effects (H-2/H-4, H-2/H-6; details in the Experimental Section and Supporting Information). Following this reaction procedure, di-Kdo enyne 9b was also subjected to the substrate-controlled asymmetric hydrogenation to afford 2deoxy-β-carboxyl Kdo disaccharide analogue 15 in an excellent 92% yield. As demonstrated in the structure assignment of compounds 10−14, the structure of 15 was also determined by
