We have synthesized, for the first time, the partial sequence of the betaglycan composed of the tetraosyl hexapeptide, which was directly usable as a probe for enzymatic glycosyl transfer. Stepwise elongation afforded the corresponding tetraosyl trichloroacetimidate. The common glycosyl dipeptide:[beta-D-GlcA-(1 -> 3)-beta-D-Gal-(1 -> 3)-beta-D-Gal-(1 -> 4)-beta-D- Xyl-(1 -> O)-Ser-Gly] was synthesized by glycosylation of the corresponding tetraosyl trichloroacetimidate and Ser-Gly moiety. The glycosyl dipeptide was coupled with other core peptide parts in solution phase and on a solid support. These glycosyl hexapeptides were then transformed into the desired target compounds.

Tetraosyl hexapeptide, a part of the sequence of betaglycan: beta-D-GlcA-(1-->3)-beta-D-Gal-(1-->3)-beta-D-Gal-(1-->4)-beta-D-Xyl-(1-->O-SerGlyTrpProAspGly (1), which was designed as a probe for glycan elongation toward heparin, was synthesized in a stereocontrolled manner.
