Carboxyl groups, protection enolate alkylation

Other reactions of carbohydrates include those of alcohols, carboxylic acids, and their derivatives. Alkylation of carbohydrate hydroxyl groups leads to ethers. Acylation of their hydroxyl groups produces esters. Alkylation and acylation reactions are sometimes used to protect carbohydrate hydroxyl groups from reaction while a transformation occurs elsewhere. Hydrolysis reactions are involved in converting ester and lactone derivatives of carbohydrates back to their polyhydroxy form. Enolization of aldehydes and ketones leads to epimerization and interconversion of aldoses and ketoses. Addition reactions of aldehydes and ketones are useful, too, such as the addition of ammonia derivatives in osazone formation, and of cyanide in the Kiliani-Fischer synthesis. Hydrolysis of nitriles from the Kiliani-Fischer synthesis leads to carboxylic acids. [Pg.1019]

Protection as an ester overcomes this problem, but the resulting ester enolate is not particularly stable and its reactions can be low yielding. Addition of a second ester to the alpha carbon serves as an activating group and allows the formation of a stabilized enolate. As seen with the acetoacetic ester synthesis, this ester group can be eventually removed by a decarboxylation reaction. The malonic ester synthesis starts with commercially available diethyl malonate. Deprotonation, alkylation of the resulting enolate with an alkyl haUde, and hydrolysis followed by decarboxylation furnishes a carboxylic acid product. [Pg.118]
