Selective demesylation of 2-0-(methylsulfonyl)-D-mannopyranoside derivatives with sodium amalgam and 2-propanol

In this laboratory, we have been investigating methods of glycoside and oligosaccharide synthesis that can be conducted in homogeneous solution, with high stereospecificity, at reasonable rates, with near-equivalent amounts of only two reactants. A series of sulfonate leaving-groups of varied reactivity at C-l have been applied to the synthesis of both c&l,2 and trans-1,2 glycosides. If these are used in the D-manno series, a participating substituent on C-2 directs the glycosidation almost exclusively to the 1,2-truns-cu-D-glycoside' ,
