Chemical synthesis of UDP-4-O-methyl-GlcNAc, a potential chain terminator of chitin synthesis
摘要:
Chitin synthase converts uridine diphosphoryl-N-acetylglucosamine (UDP-GlcNAc) to chitin (poly-beta-(1 --> 4)-GlcNAc). During polymerization, elongation occurs at the 4-OH (nonreducing) terminus of the growing chitin chain. Blockage of the 4-OH via incorporation of UDP-N-acetyl-4-O-methylglucosamine (UDP-4-OMe-GlcNAc, 3) can potentially terminate chitin polymerization, and represents a novel strategy for chitin synthase inhibition. The chemical synthesis of 3 and preliminary evaluation of its possible incorporation by chitin synthase are reported herein. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
Selection of protecting groups and synthesis of a β-1,4-GlcNAc-β-1,4-GlcN unit
摘要:
The synthesis of the disaccharide tert-butyldimethylsilyl (4-O-acetyl-2-azido-3,6-di-O-benzyl-2-deoxy-beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-3,6-di-O-benzyl-2-deoxy-2-phthalimido-beta-D-glucopyranoside, designed as a repeating unit appearing in oligo-and polysaccharides, which exhibits a distinguished "obverse-reverse" property in beta-1,4-glucan chain, was accomplished. This disaccharide was synthesized by glycosylation of a phthalimido sugar with an azido sugar. A selective removal of the two different protecting groups atC-2 for obtaining 2-acetamido-4-O-(2-amino-2-deoxy-beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-2-deoxy-beta-D-glucopyranose indicates that the selection and combination, using phthalimido and azido as protecting groups, are an excellent strategy for synthesizing such target disaccharides.

by sequential addition of DTBMP and Tf2O and glycosyl acceptors to the reaction mixture at -78 degrees C in one-pot. Stereoselective alpha-glucopyranosylations with 2,3-di-O-benzyl-4,6-O-benzylidene-D-glucopyranose (25) and other glycosylations with glucopyranoses and mannopyranoses having tetra-O-benzyl- and tetra-O-benzoyl protecting groups were also possible by utilizing the present one-pot glycosylation

Presented herein are two complementary approaches to the synthesis of the core N-glycan pentasaccharide. The first, a traditional manual approach in solution, makes use of the H-bond-mediated aglycone delivery method for the highly diastereoselective introduction of the β-mannosidic linkage at room temperature. The synthesis of the core pentasaccharide was also accomplished using an high-performance
An effective chemoenzymatic strategy is reported that has allowed the construction, for the first time, of a focused microarray of synthetic N‐glycans. Based on modular approaches, a variety of N‐glycan core structures have been chemically synthesized and covalently immobilized on a glass surface. The printed structures were then enzymatically diversified by the action of three different glycosyltransferases
A short and high yielding synthesis of a core trisaccharide 1 as the key building block in the assembly of a library of N-glycan neoconjugates is presented. The beta-D-Manp-(1 -> 4)-D-GlcpNAc linkage was introduced by inversion of the C-2 position of a beta-glucoside. The glucosyl donor was efficiently synthesised following a recently published one-pot strategy. 2-Naphthylmethyl and benzylidene-acetal protection in the terminal mannose permitted selective liberation of main branching sites for subsequent glycosylation. A C5 azido linker attached to the anomeric position, which is stable throughout the synthesis, will allow for the posterior immobilisation of deprotected glycans on a microarray surface.
