3.4. 1,2,3,4-Tetra-O-Acetyl-β-d-Mannuronic Acid (4)
To a vigorously stirred solution of 1,2,3,4-tetra-O-acetyl-β-d-mannopyranose (3) (1.5 g, 4.30 mmol, 1.0 equiv.) in dichloromethane (20 mL) and water (10 mL) was added (2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-yl)oxyl radical (TEMPO) (336 mg, 2.2 mmol, 0.50 equiv.) and [bis(acetoxy)iodo]benzene (BAIB) (6.9 g, 21.5 mmol, 5.00 equiv.). The solution was stirred at RT for 5 h, whereupon TLC analysis (hexane/ethyl acetate, 1/1) showed complete conversion of starting material to a baseline Rf value spot. The reaction was quenched with aqueous Na2S2O3 solution (10% w/v, 30 mL), the organic layer removed and the aqueous layer acidified to pH 3 using 1M HCl, followed by extraction with ethyl acetate (2 × 30 mL). The organic extracts were combined, dried (MgSO4), filtered and concentrated in vacuo to afford 1,2,3,4-tetra-O-acetyl-β-d-mannuronic acid (4) as a white solid (1.2 g, 3.3 mmol, 75%). Rf = 0.81 (dichloromethane/methanol, 9/1);

Abstract
:
1,2,3,4-Tetra-O-acetyl-β-d-mannuronic acid was synthesized in three steps from commercial d-mannose in 21% yield. Regioselective 6-O-tritylation followed by per-acetylation and 6-OTr removal using HBr/AcOH gave the required primary alcohol substrate, which was then oxidised to the target compound using TEMPO/BAIB. None of the synthetic steps required column chromatography and the product was fully characterized by 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, 2D NMR, MS and IR.
