FOREWORD

The development of novel methods for coupling molecules in the area of carbohy-drate chemistry provides access to complex oligosaccharides, glycopeptides, and evenglycoproteins of modest size, using synthetic methods. Attaching small moleculessuch as mono- or oligosaccharides to other carbohydrates, amino acids (or proteins),and other natural products is a challenging and important target in today’s glyco-sciences. Another challenging task is that of a carefully designed modification ofmonosaccharides before introducing them into a larger structure.

Both of these capabilities require chemistry that must be performed with a highlevel of regio- and stereocontrol. In recent years, several novel strategies enablingthese delicate manipulations have been introduced. One of these takes advantage ofvarious rearrangement reactions and another utilizes domino reactions. Both pro-cesses offer substantial atom economy and hopefully stereo- and regiocontrol. Thecombination of domino/cascade/rearrangement reactions has become a very powerfultool for constructing complex structures in enantiomerically pure forms. The method-ology is also very productive in the synthesis of many targets in which a well-definedsteric outcome at specific positions is desired. The Editors did well by combiningdomino and cascade reactions with rearrangements. Indeed, one or even several rear-rangements are often involved in the domino/cascade. Furthermore, a rearrangementreaction is one that takes place within a limited number of atoms belonging to onemolecule. In a domino reaction, the number of available atoms is also strictly limitedand mechanisms of the rearrangement and domino components are often similar.

Another very interesting category of the domino/cascade reactions worth men-tioning is that of three component reactions. Its application to the synthesis of manymolecules of biological interest and templates for natural products synthesis is par-ticularly appealing. This strategy is well exemplified and detailed in Chapter 7.

xiv FOREWORD

While there are excellent books devoted to domino reactions and rearrangements inorganic chemistry in general, there have been no corresponding comprehensive worksdescribing “the State of the Art” in domino/cascade reactions and rearrangements inthe carbohydrate field. Witczak and Bielski have recognized the strategic importanceof designing/preserving chirality of molecules and applying tools of modern syntheticmethodology to carbohydrate chemistry. Happily, the Editors were able to recruit agroup of outstanding scientists to contribute excellent chapters addressing importantaspects of the molecular transformations with a combination of rearrangements andcascade/domino options to cover most topics of value in glycosciences. Given itsvery careful selection of subjects and their sequential presentation in a collection of15 chapters, this book constitutes a valuable source of practical information to allcarbohydrate chemists.

I am sure that there will be a great interest in this book.

PREFACE

Synthesis of organic molecules designated to fulfill special requirements or exhibitspecific properties has belonged and will belong to the most important targets oforganic chemistry. This area of synthesis, particularly when applied to synthesisof constructs containing carbohydrates, has experienced a dramatic acceleration inrecent years. One factor explaining the observed new developments has been a betterunderstanding of the function and structure of glycoproteins and other naturally occur-ring glycorandomized derivatives. The present book attempts to offer an insight intothese new developments created by coupling domino reactions with rearrangementreactions to achieve specifically designated/functionalized carbohydrate chemistries.

Carbohydrates represent a unique family of polyfunctional molecules, which canbe chemically or enzymatically modified in a multitude of ways. They have beenextensively used as starting materials in enantioselective syntheses of many, complexnatural products with a plurality of chirality centers. Synthetic organic chemistrythat utilizes these carbohydrate building blocks continues to spawn revolutionarydiscoveries in glycobiology, medicinal chemistry, pharmacology, molecular biology,and medicine, simply by providing not only the raw materials but also the accuratemechanistic insight of modem molecular sciences.

The coupling of synthetic approaches of domino reactions combined with rear-rangement steps is always complex with multiple possible outcomes. In syntheticcarbohydrate chemistry, it is even more difficult as it is often unpredictable andalways requires very careful selection of starting templates, reagents, and reactionconditions to achieve the best approach to the target compound.

The book originates from the symposium “Domino Reactions and Rearrangementin Glycosciences,” which we organized during the 248th Meeting of the AmericanChemical Society in San Francisco, CA, in Fall 2014. It attracted several prominent

xvi PREFACE

speakers, had a relatively large attendance, and was met with a lot of interest. Some ofthe chapters in this book are based on the presentations delivered at the symposium.Other contributions are from leading experts in the field of carbohydrate chemistry.Some of the chapters are reviews of the recent literature; some describe recentexperimental data from the author’s laboratories. We believe that all chapters are ofa very high standard and offer a novel perspective on the discussed subjects.

Thus, it is not surprising that almost all of the chapters in the book are, to someextent, concerned with applications. It confronts the editors with a dilemma that isimpossible to address satisfactorily—how to divide the book into consistent segments.By no means are we satisfied with our choice, but some kind of division had to beintroduced.

Each chapter in the book covers issues related to the title reactions and dis-cusses multiple synthetic methodologies and potential applications of the synthesizedconstructs.

The introductory chapter, written by internationally recognized expert in dominoreactions Pellissier, discusses various aspects of selected examples of carbohydratedomino chemistry methodologies and proposes a novel strategy applicable to synthe-sizing certain molecular targets. It also describes the definition of domino reactionthat was originally introduced by Thietze.

Chapter 2, authored by Mahrwal, deals with organocatalyzed cascade reactionstrategies employed to the synthesis of important carbohydrate templates. The mostefficient methodologies compiled in this review were developed before the birth ofofficial combined domino/cascade reaction chemistry.

Chapter 3, authored by Soengas, describes intriguing results of the various elimi-nation reaction strategies in domino reactions.

The development and application of original framework strategy of domino reac-tion for synthesis of biological targets were thoroughly explored by Rauter in Chap-ter 4. The chapter discusses most types of natural molecules, including complexcarbohydrates.

In Chapter 5, Guaragna reviews an important topic of original strategy of synthesesof thioenol ether containing systems and their multistep cyclization mediated byDDQ.

In Chapter 6, Witczak and Bielski offer a different perspective on closelyrelated subject of thio-click and domino approach to the synthesis of carbohydrateheterocycles.

Chapter 7, by Santra and coworkers, addresses microwave-assisted multicompo-nent cascade coupling of various compounds, including carbohydrates.

Chapter 8, by Werz, is a very broad review of spiroannulation domino reactions forthe attachment of additional carbohydrate functionalities. The review discusses pro-cesses belonging to domino reactions as well as other important annulation couplingreactions traditionally used for the construction of various natural product targets.

In the second section of the book, titled “Rearrangements Reactions of Func-tional Sugar Templates,” Witczak and Bielski explore, in Chapter 9, selected topicsto introduce the reader to the subject of rearrangement reactions in carbohydratechemistry.

PREFACE xvii

Jarosz and coworkers contribute in Chapter 10 with a discussion of novel syntheticapplications of rearrangement of carbohydrate backbone discovered en route to highercarbon sugars.

Chapter 11, by Bielski and Witczak, describes a new chemistry of levoglucosenonederivatives prepared via Overman and related rearrangements.

Marzabadi and coworkers describe in Chapter 12 an important study of the rear-rangement products of 3,6-anhydro-d-glycals. The review highlights a synthesis ofprototypes of simple functionalized molecules with high chemotherapeutic potential.

Chapter 13, by Narayanaswamy and coworkers, provides a general overview of thepotential applications of ring expansion and rearrangement reactions in the synthesisof highly valuable, septanoses as bioactive, carbohydrate-based ligands with multiplebiomedical applications.

Chapter 14, by Herradon and coworkers, describes rearrangements of carbohydratetemplates as the pathway to functionalized heterocycles and peptide–scaffold hybrids.

The last chapter, by Nguyen and coworkers, explores an extremely important topicof a stereoselective transformation of glycals and glycosyl trichloroacetimidates andtheir application to the synthesis if important urea-linked glycosides.

With the increasing complexity of modern sciences in the 21st century, a needto educate industrial leaders, public, and governmental funding agencies about theintellectual and technical potential and economic importance of specific areas of lifesciences has become more and more crucial. One such area is the part of glycoscienceemerging as a result of a marriage between the concept of domino and rearrangementapproaches in the synthetic carbohydrate chemistries. We hope that this book will fillthis need, at least to some extent.

In conclusion, we are convinced that the present collection of diverse chaptersoffers an insight into the present stage of domino and rearrangement approaches inglycoscience and will help steer future discoveries to fulfill the enormous potentialin the area of synthetic carbohydrate chemistry.
