Abstract

Starting from the commercially available natural product (E)-resveratrol (1), the four selectively tert-butyldimethylsilyl (TBS) protected (E)-resveratrols 6-9 were prepared by one reaction. Using 6-9 as glucosyl acceptors and trifluoroacetimidate 11 as glucosyl donor, three bioactive natural glucopyranoside conjugates of (E)-resveratrol 2-4 and one novel compound (5) were efficiently prepared in two steps.
