Abstract: | The direct C-glycosylation of methylphloroacetophenone 8 with d-glucose gave C-beta-d-glucopyranosylmethylphloroacetophenone (7) in 65% yield, which, on oxidation in the presence of small amount of pyridine under an oxygen atmosphere afforded the quinone 9, oxidized at the methylated position of the benzene ring as a pair of diastereomers in 27% yield. A detailed NMR analysis and a comparison of the UV-vis and CD spectra of their acetates indicated that the structure and stereochemistry of 9 was (1R,1'S,2R,3S,3aS,5R and 1R,1'S,2R,3S,3aS,5S)-7-acetyl-2-(1',2'-dihydroxyethyl)-5-methyl-3,5,6-trihydroxy-8-oxofuro3,2-d]benzob]furan. |
