Carbohydr Res. 2015 Oct 13:415:28-30. doi: 10.1016/j.carres.2015.07.015. Epub 2015 Jul 30.

Abstract

A mild and efficient synthesis of 2,3-unsaturated sugar derivatives has been achieved by conducting the Ferrier reaction in a deep eutectic solvent (DES). A wide range of alcohols including primary, secondary, benzylic, and sugar-derived primary alcohols can be used. Advantages include good yields, shorter reaction times and recyclability of DES.

Keywords: 2,3-Unsaturated glycosides; Deep eutectic solvents; Ferrier reaction.
