Borinic Acid Catalyzed Stereo- and Regioselective Couplings of Glycosyl Methanesulfonates
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In the presence of a diarylborinic acid catalyst, glycosyl methanesulfonates engage in regio- and stereoselective couplings with partially protected pyranoside and furanoside acceptors. The methanesulfonate donors are prepared in situ from glycosyl hemiacetals, and are coupled under mild, operationally simple conditions (amine base, organoboron catalyst, room temperature). The borinic acid catalyst not only influences site-selectivity via activation of 1,2- or 1,3-diol motifs, but also has a pronounced effect on the stereochemical outcome: 1,2-trans-linked disaccharides are obtained selectively in the absence of neighboring group participation. Reaction progress kinetic analysis was used to obtain insight into the mechanism of glycosylation, both in the presence of catalyst and in its absence, while rates of interconversion of methanesulfonate anomers were determined by NMR exchange spectroscopy (EXSY). Together, the results suggest that although the uncatalyzed and catalyzed reactions give rise to opposite stereochemical outcomes, both proceed by associative mechanisms.

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.
