16a. Complex C was generated in situ prior to the reaction from CF3SO3Ag (2 equivalents) and (acac)2MoCl2, which in turn was obtained on a redox reaction between MoCl5 and pentane-2,4-dione. For the original procedures, see: Doyle G.: Inorg. Chem. 1971, 10, 2348. <https://doi.org/10.1021/ic50104a059>

17. Significant for the configurational assignment at the anomeric center is the chemical shift and coupling pattern of 5-H in the 1H NMR spectrum. Thus, while α-anomer 6a gives a signal at 4.05 (J4,5 = 3.5), β-anomer 7a is characterized by a signal at 3.79 (J4,5 = 8.7). In the 13C NMR spectra, C-5 in the α-anomer is always more shielded, as reflected by ≈5 ppm difference in the respective chemical shifts (73.2 ppm for 6a and 68.0 for 7a)19. Similar characteristics apply to aryl C-glycopyranosides21. Since almost all the C-glycosides 6–13 are known compounds (see the Experimental), the structural identification of our products was based mainly on the comparison of their NMR spectra with the published data. In addition, NOE experiments (especially the occurrence vs absence of the effect between 1-H and 5-H), in conjunction with 2D techniques, were employed to confirm the assignment.
