1,2-O-Isopropylidene-3-O-methyl-α-D-xylofuranose (2), 1,2-O-isopropylidene-α-D-xylofuranose (3), 2,4-O-ethylidene-D-erythritol (4) and 1,3-O-ethylidene-D-threitol (5) were alkylated with racemic (2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,7-tridecafluoroheptyl)oxirane (1) using boron trifluoride diethyl etherate as a catalyst. The desired mono- or disubstituted polyfluoroalkyl derivatives 6-11 were isolated only in low to medium yields. The fluoroalkylation was accompanied with disproportional distributions of the protecting acetal/ketal groups and polymerization of saccharides. Therefore the stability of 3, 4, 5, 5-O-acetyl-1,2-O-isopropylidene-α-D-xylofuranose (14) and 1,2-O-isopropylidene-α-D-glucofuranose (15) in the presence of a catalytic amount of boron trifluoride diethyl etherate was investigated in various solvents. A mechanism explaining the effect of the catalyst has been proposed.

The method for synthesis of N-pentofuranosyl oxazolines was developed from the protected 1,2-O-acetonides of D-xylofuranose, -ribofuranose, and -arabinofuranose using boron trifluoride diethyl etherate, acetonitrile, and potassium hydrogen difluoride. A possible mechanism of the catalyzed reaction of acylated acetonides with acetonitrile in the presence of Lewis acid was considered in terms of the activation and cleavage of the 1,3-dioxalane part of the xylose derivative fol- lowed by the conversions of intermediates to α-isooxazoline. The hydrolysis reactions of N-α-glycosyl oxazolines were stud- ied in the acidic and neutral conditions. N-α-xylofuranosyl acetamide derivatives were prepared in high yields as a result of selective hydrolysis of protected α-xylofuranosyl isooxazolines in the neutral conditions.

In connection with studies directed towards the synthesis of the pyranonaphthoquinone antibiotic medermycin, C-aryl glycosides were prepared by C-glycosylation of naphthols with glycosyl donors. Boron trifluoride diethyl etherate proved to be a suitable Lewis acid to promote the C-glycosylation, and use of the azido glycosyl donor proved more successful than using the dimethylamino glycosyl donor. 5-Hydroxy-1,4-dimethoxynaphthalene underwent facile C-glycosylation with two particular glycosyl donors, whereas 3-bromo-5-hydroxy-1,4-dimethoxynaphthalene was not an effective coupling partner with the same glycosyl donors. These studies indicate that subtle steric and electronic effects need to be considered in order to fine-tune C-glycosylations when using highly functionalized glycosyl donors.

Novel poly (selenophene-co-3-methylthiophene) was successfully achieved by directly electrochemical oxidation of the monomer mixtures of selenophene and 3-methylthiophene (3MeT) in boron trifluoride diethyl etherate. The effect of monomer concentration ratios on the copolymerization were investigated by cyclic voltammetry. The structures of as-prepared copolymers were characterized by UV-vis and infrared spectroscopy. The conductivity and thermoelectric measurements revealed the incorporation of 3MeT into the polyselenophene (PSe) chain improved significantly the conductivity and thermoelectric property of PSe.
