ResumoThe reaction of methyl 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-1-O-trimethylsilyl-β- (5) and -α-d-glucopyranuronate (6) severally with the dimethyl or diethyl acetals of formaldehyde, bromoacetaldehyde, propionaldehyde, 3-benzyloxypropionaldehyde, 5-carboxypentanal, and 2-bromohexanal in the presence of catalytic amounts of trimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate at −78° gave the corresponding (1-alkoxyalkyl) α- and β-glycosides (acetal-glucopyranosiduronates) with retention of configuration at C-1 in yields of 41–91%. Instead of the dialkyl acetals, the corresponding aldehydes and alkyl trimethylsilyl ether can be used. Deacetylation gave the corresponding methyl (acetal-β- and -α-d-glucopyranosid)uronates in good yield. De-esterification of methyl [(1R)-1-methoxybutyl β-d-glucopyranosid]uronate with esterase gave the acetal-β-d-glucopyranosiduronic acid which was an excellent substrate for β-d-glucuronidase.
