Use of n-Pentenyl Glycosides as Precursors to Various Spacer Functionalities
摘要:
Pent-4-enyl beta-D-glucopyranoside and its peracetylated and perbenzylated derivatives are shown to be excellent substrates for preparation of a wide variety of spacer functionalities. The spacer derivatives so obtained are promising substrates for preparing agents such as neo-glycoconjugates, micelles, and liquid crystalline phases, which are of interest for studying various biological and physiological phenomena of carbohydrates.
Preparation of 4-hydroxybutyl-beta-D-glucoside was achieved by reversed hydrolysis from glucose using almond-beta-glucosidase impregnated on mineral supports, while 4-hydroxybutyl-alpha-D-glucoside was obtained from glucose or by one-pot starch hydrolysis followed by glucosidation catalysed by gamma-amylase (amyloglucosidase) from Rhizopus mold on celites. The influence of the support nature and of water activity were investigated in order to shift the equilibrium towards glycosidation. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
