摘要:
3-Acetainido-3.6-dideoxy-D-galactopyranose (D-Fucp3NAc) is an aminosugar almost exclusively found in phytopathogenic O-antigens. The glycosylation reaction involving D-Fucp3NAc donors was studied with several rhamnosyl acceptors, revealing, that the best yields and highest alpha-stereoselectivity were obtainable by coupling a N-phenyl trifluoroacetimidate glycosyl donor in a tertiary mixture (dioxane/DME/toluene 4:1:1) as solvent. For the first time a synthetic access to alpha-D-Fucp3NAc containing oligorhamnans, that are interesting molecules for studying the effects of O-antigen model oligosaccharides on the modulation of plant response to bacteria, was reported. An example is the pentasaccharide repeating unit of the major O-antigen component from Pseudomonas syringae pv. holci IMV 8300, which was synthesized as its methyl glycoside. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd.
