Stereoselective Synthesis of α-C-Glucosamines via Anomeric Organosamarium Reagents

Abstract
The direct coupling of the pyridyl sulfone of N-acetylglucosamine with aldehydes or ketones is promoted by samarium diiodide affording the corresponding α-C-glycosides preferentially. A C-disaccharide has been synthesized using this approach.
