The combination of NiCl2/PyBox in N,N′-dimethylimidazolidinone (DMI) enabled the synthesis of C-alkyl glycosides under mild reaction conditions. Moderate yields and β-selectivities were obtained for C-glucosides, and good yields and high α-selectivities were the norm for C-mannosides. For C-aryl glycosides, reactions employing Ni(COD)2/tBu-Terpy in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) were typically high yielding and provided C-glucosides with high β-selectivities (1:>10 α:β) and C-mannosides in moderate α-selectivities (3:1 α:β); α-C-aryl glycosides could be obtained by the combination of Ni(COD)2/PyBox in DMF (>20:1 α:β). The collective studies suggest that stereochemical control of the C-glycosides is dependent on the substrate and catalysts combination. The Negishi protocol displays excellent functional group tolerance, as demonstrated by its use in the first total synthesis of the natural product salmochelin SX. %I ACS Publications
