Abstract

Zinc bromide (ZnBr2) under microwave irradiation efficiently catalyzed the Ferrier reaction of hindered phenols and alcohols to afford the corresponding α-2,3-unsaturated glucoside acetates in good yields and with good stereoselectivity. The reaction affords a facile access to new 2,3-dideoxyglucosides of important phenolic and alcoholic constituents of spices.
