A Mild Pummerer-Like Reaction of Carbohydrate-Based Selenoethers and Thioethers Involving Linear Ozonide Acetates as Putative Intermediates
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Pummerer-like rearrangements of carbohydrate-based heterocycles containing selenium and sulfur were investigated. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on the Pummerer rearrangement in selenoheterocycles. Ozonization of 1,4-anhydro-D-galactitol or 1,5-anhydroxylitol derivatives containing sulfur or selenium as the ring heteroatom gave unstable intermediates that were attributed to ozonides. These intermediates decomposed upon warming to give selenoxides or sulfoxides. Significantly, addition of acetic anhydride at low temperature to the ozonization reaction mixtures gave Pummerer-rearrangement products after warming to ambient temperature. However, when the isolated selenoxides or sulfoxides were treated with acetic anhydride, Pummerer rearrangement occurred but the sulfoxides required much higher reaction temperatures. The latter results are at variance with the former and are interpreted in terms of the rearrangement of the ozonide acetate intermediates in the former cases. To probe whether the rearrangement proceeded heterolytically via extrusion of singlet oxygen or homolytically via the generation of radical species, trapping experiments with rubrene and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) studies with the radical trap DMPO were performed. The results of these experiments are consistent with the intermediacy of radical species and suggest a new and milder synthetic method to generate Pummerer-type products.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
