A highly convergent synthesis of an N-linked glycopeptide presenting the H-type 2 human blood group determinant
摘要:
The total synthesis of an H-type blood group determinant in a model biological setting is described. The construct is comprised of a high mannose core structure with projecting lactose spacers, culminating in a two-copy presentation of the H-type blood group determinant itself. Key reactions that were used in this construction include sulfonamidohydroxylation (see 15 -> 18) and benzoate-directed glycosylation via an activated thiophenyl donor (see 34 -> 36). Another key strategic element involved the epimerization of an interior core glucoside to reach the P-mannoside (see 37 -> 38) required in the ring C sugar of the high mannose core.

A Highly Convergent Total Synthetic Route to Glycopeptides Carrying a High-Mannose Core Pentasaccharide DomainN-linked to a Natural Peptide Motif
摘要:
AbstractN‐Linked glycopeptides were synthesized by condensation of a highmannose anomeric amine bearing a pentasaccharide with aspartic‐acid‐containing tri‐ and pentapeptides through the agency of IIDQ. The pentasaccharide portion, corresponding to the „core”︁ region of all asparagine‐linked glycoproteins, was assembled by means of glycal‐derived thioethyl donors and glycal acceptors. The central mannose residue was established by inversion of the C2 hydroxyl of a glucosyl precursor in the pentasaccharide. The protecting‐group scheme employed allows the extension of the pentasaccharide through the terminal mannose units. While a fully convergent coupling of the high‐mannose carbohydrate to the peptide domain has thus been accomplished for the first time with a fully synthetic sugar, the stereochemical integrity of the anomeric center of the carbohydrate domain was not maintained and a mixture of glycopeptides was obtained.
