Synthesis of neosaponins having an α- l -rhamnopyranosyl-(1→4)-[α- l -rhamnopyranosyl-(1→2)]- d -glucopyranosyl glyco-linkage
摘要:
To verify the role of the alpha -L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 --> 4)-[alpha -L-rhamnopyranosyl-( 1 -->2)]-beta -D-glucopyranosyl (chacotriosyl) moiety of steroidal glycosides from Solaum plants in their antitumor and antivirus activities, chacotriosides of diosgenin, cholesterol, and glycrrhetic acid were synthesized by developing our trans-oligoglycosidation. The chacotriosyl trichloroacetimidate was linked to the aglycones to afford neoglycosides as a mixture of alpha and beta anomers, that was easily separated with ODS chromatography.

-(1-->4)-[alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1-->2)]-beta-D-glucopyr anose (chacotriose) is the oligosaccharide moiety of dioscin. Chacotriosyl trichloroacetimidate was synthesized from d-glucose and l-rhamnose, and glycosylated to mevalonate (diosgenin, cholesterol, and glycyrrhetic acid) to yield dioscin and neosaponins. In order to simplify the structure of the aglycone part, the mevalonate moiety was replaced
