Partial methylation of the methyl pyranosides of a number of pentoses, hexoses, 6-deoxyhexoses, methyl uronates and their methyl ethers with diazomethane in the presence of transition-metal chlorides and boric acid was studied. It was found for methyl glycosides of pentoses and 6-deoxyhexoses that tin(II), antimony(III), and titanium(IV) chlorides as well as boric acid promoted substitution mainly of OH-3, but with cerium(III) and zinc(II) salts mainly substitution of OH-2 was observed. Methylation of methyl β-l-rhamnopyranoside demonstrated higher reactivity of OH-2 in all cases. The methylation of methyl glycosides of hexoses in the presence of tin(II), antimony(III) and cerium(III) chlorides gave mainly 3-methyl ethers. The 3-methyl ethers, which are not involved in further complexation, accumulated up to 50-80% of the reaction mixture (95-100% of monomethyl ether fraction). Convenient preparative syntheses of methyl ethers for a number of sugars are suggested. Copyright (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd.

A glycoside, mp 209-220 deg C (decomp), D -142 degree, C47H70O24, named trillenoside A (I), was isolated from the rhizomes of Trillium kamtschaticum PALL (Liliaceae).The structure of its aglycone (designated trillenogenin, II), mp 250-251 deg C, D -198 degree, C26H36O8, was determined by X-ray crystallographic analysis of the tetraacetyl monobrosyl derivative, mp 242-244 deg C (dec.), D -112 degree, C40H47BrO14S, and I was characterized as 15-oxo-18-nor-25R-spirosta-5,13-diene-1β,3β,21,23α,24β-pentaol-1-O-β-D-apiofuranosyl-(1->3)-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1->2)-3)>-α-L-arabinopyranoside.I is thus a novel type of steroid glycoside, noteworthy in that the aglycone is an 18-nor-spirostane derivative having an enone system in the D-ring and hydroxyl groups at C21 and in the F-ring, and also in that the sugar moiety is a branched-chain tetrasaccharide containing apiose.Keywords - trillenoside A; 15-oxo-18-nor-spirostadiene-pentaol tetraglycoside; Trillium kamtschaticum PALL; structure determination; trillenogenin; X-ray analysis
