Abstract

Does neighboring group participation actually enhance the reactivity of the anomeric center when the participating group is inherently disarming? To investigate the influence of the neighboring group effect from a 2-O protective group on acidic glycoside hydrolysis, 10 methyl glucosides having different protective groups on O2 have been synthesized and a clear trend between anomeric configuration, participation of the protective group, and the rate of hydrolysis could be observed.
