Comprehensive Summary Traditional protecting groups are often removed under harsh conditions with potentially hazardous reagents, thereby impeding the convenient synthesis of oligosaccharides and glycosides. Herein, we present to utilize photolabile ortho ‐nitro‐benzyl carbonate ( o NBC) as a permanent hydroxyl group for stereocontrolled The Ph 3 PO‐modulated glycosylation strongly disarmed per‐ O ‐ NBC‐protected glycosyl ynenoates preferred afford glycosides excellent α‐selectivities via β‐phosphonium transition state. Based on NBC‐mediated galactosylation, glycolipid digalactosyl diacylglycerol (DGDG) containing six double bonds two esters was achieved in straightforward manner.

The structural complexity of glycans poses a serious challenge in the chemical synthesis glycosides, oligosaccharides and glycoconjugates. Glycan complexity, determined by composition, connectivity, configuration far exceeds what nature achieves with nucleic acids proteins. Consequently, glycoside ranks among most complex tasks organic synthesis, despite involving only simple type bond-forming reaction. Here, we introduce fundamental principles bond formation summarize recent advances oligosaccharide synthesis.

Abstract Controlling the selectivity of a chemical reaction with external stimuli is common in thermal processes, but rare visible‐light photocatalysis. Here we show that redox potential carbon nitride photocatalyst (CN‐OA‐m) can be tuned by changing irradiation wavelength to generate electron holes different oxidation potentials.

The cleavage of benzyl ethers by catalytic hydrogenolysis or Birch reduction suffers from poor functional group compatibility and limits their use as a protecting group. visible-light-mediated debenzylation disclosed here renders temporary protective groups, enabling new orthogonal protection strategies. Using 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ) stoichiometric photooxidant, can be cleaved in the presence azides, alkenes, alkynes. reaction time reduced hours to minutes continuous flow.

We report a catalytic method for the direct deoxygenation of various C–O bond-containing functional groups. Using Ni(II) pre-catalyst and silane reducing agent, alcohols, epoxides, ethers are reduced to corresponding alkane. Unsaturated species including aldehydes ketones also deoxygenated via initial formation an intermediate silylated alcohol. The reaction is chemoselective C(sp3)–O bonds, leaving amines, anilines, aryl ethers, alkenes, nitrogen-containing heterocycles untouched. Applications toward deuteration, benzyl ether deprotection, valorization biomass-derived feedstocks demonstrate some practical aspects this methodology.
