Hello,
For my medical chemistry lab the professor gave us a compound used in the clinical (bexagliflozin) and we have to search about their synthesis and mechanism.
I can't comprehend what is going on here. I've been all afternoon looking around different mechanisms but i can't seem to understand it at all.
What im thinking is that the organolithium (of our choice, let's suppose it's nBu-Li) acts as a nucleophile but how does the condensation between the TMSO glucoside and the other molecule combines.
I hope someone can understand my question, i have to get this done by next week.
Thank u.
