5-exo Radical cyclization onto 3-alkoxyketimino-1, 6-anhydromannopyranoses. Efficient preparation of synthetic intermediates for (-)-tetrodotoxin

J Org Chem. 2000 Sep 22;65(19):5960-8. doi: 10.1021/jo000325y.

Abstract

Ketoxime ethers at C3 of 1,6-anhydro-beta-D-mannopyranose derivatives were found to be useful 5-exo radical traps of alkyl and vinyl radicals generated at a chain tethered to the C2 hydroxyl group, allowing advanced synthetic intermediates for (-)-tetrodotoxin to be prepared from D-mannose in good overall yield.
