Direct β-glucosidation between phenethyl alcohol and D-glucose (5) using the immobilized β-glucosidase from almonds with the synthetic prepolymer ENTP-4000 gave a phenethyl β-D-glucoside (1) in 34% yield. The coupling of the phenethyl O-β-D-glucopyranoside congener (8) and methylthio-2,3,4-tri-O-acetyl-β-D-xylopyranoside (9), 2,3,4-tri-O-acetyl- α-L-arabinopyranosyl bromide (11), and methylthio 2,3,4-tri-O-acetyl- α-L-rhamnopyranoside (13) afforded the coupled products (10, 12, and 14), respectively. Deprotection of the coupled products (10, 12, and 14) afforded the synthetic phenethyl O-β-D-xylopyranosy-(1→6)- β-D- glucopyranoside (2), phenethyl O-α-L-arabinopyranosy-(1→6)-β-D- glucopyranoside (3), and phenethyl O-α-L-rhamnopyranosy- (1→6)-β-D-glucopyranoside (4), respectively.

Two general synthetic routes were established in order to synthesize two diglycosides, primeverosides (1) and vicianosides (2), found in tea leaves. Procedure 1 is based on the Koenig-Knorr type of condensation of aglycon alcohols and 1-α-bromohexabenzoylprimeverose (6) and is suitable for the condensation of primary alcohols. Procedure 2 is to combine tribenzoyl-β-D-glucoside (8) and 1-α-bromotribenzoylxylose (4). The primeveroside of a tertiary alcohol was synthesized by this method which is also applicable to the synthesis of vicianosides. The hydrolysis rate of each of the 12 synthesized glycosides by a crude tea enzyme was evaluated, which suggest that the main glycosidase is primeverosidase and the enzyme mixture shows substrate specificity to both the carbohydrate and aglycon moieties.
