84. Partial anomerization of the N-β-D-glucopyranosyl substituent in the presence of fluoride anion has also been observed during the preparation of the β-anomer of trehazolin. See: Kobayashi, Y.; Shiozaki, M. J. Antibiot. 1994, 47, 243.
85. 2O showed signals at 102.1-101.8 and 96.1-95.9 ppm, with similar intensities, for the C-1 resonances of the α- and β-hexofuranose anomers, respectively. See: Bock, K.; Pedersen, C. Adv. Carbohydr. Chem. Biochem. 1983, 41, 27. Upon addition of 0.1 M NaOD to the solution in the NMR tube until a neutral to slightly basic pH was achieved, an instantaneous, virtually quantitative transformation into the final bicyclic compound was observed. The pseudomolecular peaks in the FABMS spectra of the crude reaction mixtures before neutralization showed an 18 m/z unit increase compared to those of the final compounds, in agreement with the proposed reaction pathway.
86. A similar hemiacetal-hemiaminal equilibrium has been previously reported for cyclic guanidine-type glycomimetics. For these systems, it was observed that the interconversion rate between the two forms was slow enough to allow assuming that the species present in solution during determination of glycosidase inhibiton constants was that dictated by the initial pH. See: Jeong, J.-H.; Murray, B. W.; Takayama, S.; Wong, C.-H. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1996, 118, 4227. In our case, the interconversion rate seems to be extremely slow in a nwide range of pHs (pH 9-4 in the case of 25) and virtually instantaneous when the limit pH values are reached.
