Fleetamine (3-O-α-d-glucopyranosyl-swainsonine): the synthesis of a hypothetical inhibitor of endo-α-mannosidase
摘要:
3-O-alpha-D-Glucopyranosyl-swainsonine was originally proposed(17) as a potential inhibitor of the mammalian enzyme endo-alpha-mannosidase, but its synthesis has not been reported. Herein we report the total synthesis of this enigmatic compound, utilizing a halide-ion catalysed glycosylation of a swainsonine lactam with a glucosyl iodide donor as the key step. The resulting inhibitor was evaluated as an inhibitor of human endo-alpha-mannosidase, and as a ligand for bacterial orthologs from Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron and Bacteroides xylanisolvens, including active-centre variants, although no evidence for binding or inhibition was observed. The surprising lack of binding was rationalized by using structural alignment with an endo-alpha-mannosidase inhibitor complex, which identified deleterious interactions with the swainsonine piperidine ring and an essential active site residue.

Solution-Phase Hexasaccharide Synthesis Using Glucosyl Iodides
摘要:
[GRAPHIC]Oligosaccharides composed of 1,6-glucosyl residues have been prepared from glucosyl iodides. The reactions are highly stereoselective, giving the a-glycosides as the only isolated products in yields ranging from 84% to 94%. Oligomer synthesis can take place in an iterative 1 + 1 + 1 fashion or in a convergent manner where dimer iodides serve as donors for higher order acceptors.
Regioselective Acetolysis of Highly<i>O</i>-Benzylated Carbohydrates Promoted by Iodine or an Iodine/Silane Combined Reagent: Use of Isopropenyl Acetate as an Alternative to Acetic Anhydride
the protocols presented here do not suffer from the use of harsh acidic reagents and excess amounts of high-boiling aceticanhydride. The activation of IPA with iodine and triethylsilane (or the cheaper polymethylhydrosiloxane, PMHS) usually results in shorter reaction times, with the acetolysis occurring preferentially (with some exceptions) at primary benzyloxy groups. With anomerically armed sugars

Glycosidehydrolase family 99 (GH99) was created to categorize sequence‐related glycosidases possessing endo‐α‐mannosidase activity: the cleavage of mannosidic linkages within eukaryotic N‐glycan precursors (Glc1–3Man9GlcNAc2), releasing mono‐, di‐ and triglucosylated‐mannose (Glc1–3‐1,3‐Man). GH99 family members have recently been implicated in the ability of Bacteroides spp., present within the gut

The title compound as its methyl glycoside was efficiently synthesized using a block synthesis approach. Halide-assisted glycosidations between 6-O-acetyl-2,3,4-tri-O-benzyl-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl iodide and ethyl 2-O-acetyl-4,6-di-O-benzyl-1-thio-alpha-D-mannopyranoside using triphenylphosphine oxide as promoter yielded, with complete alpha-selectivity, a disaccharide building block in high yield.

Our group has recently found that EPSs generated from Leuconostocmesenteroides ssp. mesenteroides strain NTM048 (NTM048 EPS) enhanced a production of mucosal immunoglobulin A (IgA) of mouse. Herein, we described the synthesis and evaluation of the tetrasaccharide fragments of

The use of glycosyl iodides as an effective method for the preparation of glycosides has had a recent resurgence in carbohydrate chemistry, despite its early roots in which these species were believed to be of limited use. Renewed interest in these species as glycosylating agents has been spurred by their demonstrated utility in the stereoselective preparation of O-glycosides, and other glycosylic compounds. This review provides a brief historical account followed by an examination of the use of glycosyl iodides in the synthesis of oligosaccharicles and other glycomimetics, including C-glycosylic compounds, glycosyl azides and N-glycosides.
