Four derivatives of beta-maltosyl-(1 -->4)-trehalose were prepared, each with two deoxy functions in one of the constitutive disaccharide building blocks. 2,3-Di-O-acetyl-4,6-dideoxy-4,6-diiodo-alpha-D-galactopyranosyl-(1-->4) -1,2,3,6-tetra-O-acetyl-D-glucopyranose (3) was employed as a precursor for the 4'",6'" -dideoxygenated tetrasaccharide 9: coupling of 3 with 2,3,6-tri-O-benzyl-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl 2,3,6-tri-O-benzylidene-alpha-D-glucopyranoside (4) furnished the tetrasaccharide 5 which was deiodinated and deprotected to yield the target tetrasaccharide 9. Secondly, the dideoxygenated maltose derivative 3-deoxy-4,6-O-isopropylidene-2-O-pivaloyl-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-->4)-1,6- anhydro-3-deoxy-2-O-pivaloyl-beta-D-glucopyranose (10) was ring-opened to the anomeric acetate 11. A [2+2] block synthesis with 4 in TMS triflate mediated glycosylation gave a tetrasaccharide which was deprotected to the 3 ",3'"- dideoxygenated analogue of beta-maltosyl-(1 -->4)-trehalose. For the third tetrasaccharide, 2,3,2',3'-tetra-O-benzyl-alpha,alpha-trehalose was iodinated at the primary positions and deiodinated in the presence of palladium-on-carbon, then this acceptor was selectively glycosylated with hepta-O-acetyl-maltosyl bromide (20). Removal of protective groups furnished the maltosyl trehalose tetrasaccharide deoxygenated at positions C-6 and C-6'. To prepare a 3,3'-dideoxygenated trehalose, the free hydroxyl groups of 2-O-benzyl-4,6-O-(R)-benzylidene-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl 2-O-benzyl-4,6-O-(R)-benzylidene-alpha-D-glucopryanoside (25) were reduced by Barton-McCombie deoxygenation. One of the benzylidene groups was opened reductively with sodium cyanoborohydride. The resulting free hydroxyl group at the 4'-position was glycosylated in a Koenigs-Knorr reaction with 20 to yield the 3,3'-dideoxygenated tetrasaccharide 32, the fourth target oligosaccharide, after deprotection.
