Metathesis Of Ω-Unsaturated Glycosides with Chloro-Aryloxide Complexes of Tungsten, as a New Synthetic Route Leading to Unsaturated Neutral Bolaforms

Abstract
Glucosides of unsaturated alcohols, bearing different functional groups on the carbohydrate units, underwent catalytic metathesis reaction affording neutral bolaforms in good yields. Tungsten aryloxo-complexes (1 and 2), due to large steric hindrance, were found to be superior catalysts for this process.
