摘要:
Functionalised carbohydrates for incorporation into multivalent ligands for the Escherichia coli O157 verotoxin are highly desirable. Here, we report the synthesis of a sugar aminoacid based on the known Gal-alpha-1,4-Gal ligand for verotoxin in eight steps and in similar to 10% overall yield. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd.
