Abstract

Okicamelliaside, a glucoside of ellagic acid with potent anti-degranulation activity, was synthesized from ellagic acid. The regioselectivity, solubility, and high reactivity of the intermediates throughout the synthesis were obtained by the complementary use of triisopropylsilyl (TIPS) and methoxyethoxymethyl (MEM) protective groups on the aglycone skeleton.
