Carbohydrates as Stereodifferentiating Auxiliaries

2017

Carbohydrates are inexpensive natural products. Although they contain numerous functional groups and stereogenic centers in one molecule, carbohydrates were recognized as stereodifferentiating auxiliaries much later than other classes of natural products as for example amino acids or terpenes. Apart from their polyfunctional nature carbohydrates are characterized by the anomeric and exo-anomeric effects which have distinct influence of the spatial orientation of substituents linked to the anomeric position. Based on these stereochemical properties carbohydrates were used as stereodifferentiating auxiliaries in numerous diastereoselective reactions, such as aldol addition, alkylation reactio…

Protecting Groups

1991

There is hardly any area of preparative organic chemistry in which the proper use of protecting groups is not a prerequisite for the successful achievement of the goals aimed at. For this reason such blocking functions have been developed for nearly 100 years by numerous researchers from all disciplines of organic chemistry, and consequently solutions to the existing problems have been devised, making use of various synthetic transformations. It was Fischer who, among his many important contributions to chemistry, first realized that the application of protecting functions is often a necessity for a successful synthesis. Thus, he introduced the isopropylidene ketal in carbohydrate chemistry…

Stereoselective Synthesis of Bromopiperidinones and their Conversion to Annulated Heterocycles

2009

N-Galactopyranosyl- and N-glucopyranosyl imines of aliphatic, aromatic and heteroaromatic aldehydes react with 1-methoxy-3-trimethylsilyloxy-1,3-butadiene in a domino Mannich-Michael reaction cascade to give 2-substituted 5,6-dehydro-piperidin-4-ones with high diastereoselectivity. Treatment of these cyclic enaminones with N-bromo-succinimide yields the corresponding 2-substituted 5-bromo-5,6-dehydropiperidinones which react with L-SelectrideⓇ or methylcuprate to afford the saturated bromo-piperidinones with high diastereoselectivity. Condensation reactions of these products with thioamides afford thiazolopiperidines

Stereoselective synthesis of C-glycosyl compounds via Michael addition of trimethylsilyl enol ethers and enamines to hex-1-enopyran-3-uloses

1987

Abstract The titanium(IV)-catalyzed addition of trimethylsilyl enol ethers to 2,4,6-tri- O -acylhex - 1 - enopyran - 3 - uloses ( 3 and 4 ) gave stereoselectively 3,6 - di - O - acyl - 4 - deoxy - β - d - glycero -hex-3-enopyranosyl-2-ulose derivatives. The formation of the C -glycosyl bond was accompanied by a 2→3 acyl shift, followed by the elimination of the 4-acyloxy substituent. Similarly, the reaction of 1-pyrrolidinocyclohexene with 3 and 4 also led stereoselectively to 2-(2,4,6-tri- O -acyl-β- d - ribo -hexopyranosyl)cyclohexanones. In this Michael addition, among the eight possible diastereomers, only one was formed. The high stereocontrol of both C -glycosyl compound syntheses is …

ChemInform Abstract: Oligosaccharide Synthesis via Electrophile-Induced Activation of Glycosyl-N-allylcarbamates.

Abstract Glycosyl-N-allyl carbamates, obtained by reaction of anomerically unprotected saccharides with allyl isocyanate, can be activated by an electrophile-induced cyclisation and reacted with glycosyl acceptors to form the corresponding oligosaccharides By this method the mucin core 2 trisaccharide2 has successfully been synthesized. Due to the mild glycosylation conditions even 1-O-acetyl protected glycosyl acceptors can be used. This was demonstrated in the synthesis of a 1,6-linked glucosyl trisaccharide whereby a reptitious glycosylation strategy could be applied. 1. Dedicated to the memory of Professor Akira Hasegawa.

This study investigated the diastereoselective synthesis of three dipeptide templates 1, 2 and 3, which may be regarded as conformationally restricted analogs of H-Gly-Xaa-OH, in which Xaa constitutes an aromatic amino acid. Bond formation between α-C of Gly and the aromatic moiety was achieved by proton-catalyzed intramolecular electrophilic aromatic substitution. The absolute configuration of the dipeptide templates was determined by single-crystal X-ray crystallography or by nuclear Overhauser enhancement measurements. A protective group strategy was elaborated to allow their incorporation into peptide sequences by liquid phase as well as by solid-phase peptide synthesis. The templates w…

Solid-Phase Synthesis of a Sialyl-Tn-Glycoundecapeptide of the MUC1 Repeating Unit

1997

The synthesis of glycopeptides carrying tumour-associated antigens is of interest for cancer diagnosis and treatment. Here, a very efficient route lo disaccharide threonine building block 8 is presented which allows the introduction of the sialyl-Tn antigen into a peptide. The syntheses of the undecapeptide and the sialyl-Tn-containing glycoundecapeptide, which are a part of the repeating unit of MUC1, were performed by solid-phase synthesis with an allylic anchor cleavable under neutral conditions. After detachment from the resin, the peptide and the glycopeptide arc completely deprotected giving the target compounds 13 and 15, respectively.

A fully synthetic glycopeptide antitumor vaccine based on multiple antigen presentation on a hyperbranched polymer.

2014

For antitumor vaccines both the selected tumor-associated antigen, as well as the mode of its presentation, affect the immune response. According to the principle of multiple antigen presentation, a tumor-associated MUC1 glycopeptide combined with the immunostimulating T-cell epitope P2 from tetanus toxoid was coupled to a multi-functionalized hyperbranched polyglycerol by "click chemistry". This globular polymeric carrier has a flexible dendrimer-like structure, which allows optimal antigen presentation to the immune system. The resulting fully synthetic vaccine induced strong immune responses in mice and IgG antibodies recognizing human breast-cancer cells.

2011

Abstract The membrane-bound tumor-associated glycoprotein MUC1 is aberrantly glycosylated in cancer cells compared with normal cells, and is therefore considered an attractive target for cancer immunotherapy. However, tumor-associated glycopeptides from MUC1 do not elicit a sufficiently robust immune response. Therefore, antitumor vaccines were developed, which consist of MUC1 glycopeptides as the B epitopes and immune-stimulating toll-like receptor 2 (TLR 2) lipopeptide ligands. These fully synthetic vaccine candidates were prepared by solid-phase synthesis of the MUC1 glycopeptides. The Pam(3) Cys lipopeptide, also synthesized on solid-phase, was C-terminally coupled to oligovalent lysine…

Stereoselective synthesis of glycosides and anomeric azides of glucosamine

1992

The β-azide of O-acetyl protected N-acetyl glucosamine is efficiently accessible via a phasetransfer-catalyzed reaction of the corresponding glycosyl chloride with sodium azide. The azido group revealed to be a useful anomeric protection for modifications of the protecting group pattern of the glucosamine unit. Exchange of the O-acyl groups by 4-methoxybenzylidene and 4-methoxybenzyl (Mpm) protection delivered regioselectively blocked glucosaminyl azide derivatives. In contrast, the N-phthaloyl protected glucosaminyl azide was obtained quantitatively from the corresponding glycosyl fluoride via a boron trifluoride-promoted reaction with trimethylsilyl azide. N-Phthaloyl glucosaminyl fluorid…

The fungal fungicide was obtained in an overall yield of 9 %.

ChemInform Abstract: Carbohydrates as Chiral Templates: Diastereoselective Synthesis of N- Glycosyl-N-homoallylamines and β-Amino Acids from Imines.

2010

Complexing properties and chirality of carbohydrates were utilized in diastereoselective reactions of 0-pivaloylated N-galactosylimines with allylsilanes and -stannaries. With dyltrimethylsilane in the presence of SnCl4, imines 2 of aromatic and heteroaromatic aldehydes were converted to homdylamines 3, giving ratios of diastereomers higher than 7:1. No addition products derived from α-anomeric aromatic imines were formed. Aliphatic homdylamines 3 were synthesized by using allyltributylstannane in the presence of SnCl4. Both α- and β-anomeric aliphatic imines reacted with the allylstannane. They gave the same ratio of diastereomers and showed the same sense of asymmetric induction.

Specificity of human natural antibodies referred to as anti-Tn

2020

International audience; To understand the role of human natural IgM known as antibodies against the carbohydrate epitope Tn, the antibodies were isolated using GalNAcα−Sepharose affinity chromatography, and their specificity was profiled using microarrays (a glycan array printed with oligosaccharides and bacterial polysaccharides, as well as a glycopeptide array), flow cytometry, and inhibition ELISA. The antibodies bound a restricted number of GalNAcα-terminated oligosaccharides better than the parent monosaccharide, e.g., 6-O-Su-GalNAcα and GalNAcα1−3Galβ1−3(4)GlcNAcβ. The binding with several bacterial polysaccharides that have no structural resemblance to the affinity ligand GalNAcα was…

Carbohydrate Auxiliaries in Stereoselective Syntheses of Decahydroquinoline Alkaloids

2002

Using tetra-O-pivaloyl-β-D-galactopyranosylamine as the chiral auxiliary, both trans- and cis-annelated decahydroquinoline alkaloids can be synthesized stereoselectively. This methodology of asymmetric synthesis is based on the effect that both enantiomers of 2,6-disubstituted piperidin-4-ones are selectively and alternatively accessible using the auxiliary as the identical stereodifferentiating tool. In addition, the carbohydrate auxiliary controls the stereoselective protonation of enolates formed by conjugate addition of cuprates to N-galactosyl octahydroquinolin-4-ones. The syntheses of trans-4a-epi-pumiliotoxin C and cis-4a-epi-perhydro-219A illustrate this concept of asymmetric synthe…

ChemInform Abstract: SYNTHESIS OF THE GLYCOPEPTIDE PARTIAL SEQUENCE A80-A84 OF HUMAN FIBROBLAST INTERFERON

1985

The glycopentapeptide H-(GlcNAcβ1-)Asn-Glu-Thr-Ile-Val-OH (10) representing the partial sequence A80–A84 of human fibroblast interferon was synthesized using the newly developed allyl-ester protection of carboxy functions. The allyl esters, which are stable to acids and to bases, can be cleaved under very mild, neutral conditions using tris(triphenylphosphine)rhodium(I) chloride or tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(0) as a catalyst. This synthetic method opens up a preparative route to glycopeptide model structures of glycoproteins of high biological interest.

Evaluation of a novel monoclonal antibody against tumor-associated MUC1 for diagnosis and prognosis of breast cancer

2019

There is still a great unmet medical need concerning diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer which could be addressed by utilizing specific molecular targets. Tumor-associated MUC1 is expressed on over 90 % of all breast cancer entities and differs strongly from its physiological form on epithelial cells, therefore presenting a unique target for breast cancer diagnosis and antibody-mediated immune therapy. Utilizing an anti-tumor vaccine based on a synthetically prepared glycopeptide, we generated a monoclonal antibody (mAb) GGSK-1/30, selectively recognizing human tumor-associated MUC1. This antibody targets exclusively tumor-associated MUC1 in the absence of any binding to MUC1 on health…

d-Glucose as a multivalent chiral scaffold for combinatorial chemistry

2002

Due to their high density of functional groups and their availability in a variety of diastereomeric forms, monosaccharides are considered attractive scaffolds for combinatorial chemistry that allow the attachment and defined spatial alignment of up to five different pharmacophoric groups. For their application in combinatorial syntheses on solid phase, a set of selectively removable hydroxy protecting groups in combination with a cleavable anchor is required. Herein, we report on the construction and use of a versatile multivalent glucose building block for parallel synthesis on the solid phase.

Antibody Induction Directed against the Tumor-Associated MUC4 Glycoprotein

2015

Mucin glycoproteins are important diagnostic and therapeutic targets for cancer treatment. Although several strategies have been developed to explore anti-tumor vaccines based on MUC1 glycopeptides, only few studies have focused on vaccines directed against the tumor-associated MUC4 glycoprotein. MUC4 is an important tumor marker overexpressed in lung cancer and uniquely expressed in pancreatic ductual adenocarcinoma. The aberrant glycosylation of MUC4 in tumor cells results in an exposure of its peptide backbone and the formation of tumor-associated glycopeptide antigens. Due to the low immunogenicity of these endogenous structures, their conjugation with immune stimulating peptide or prot…

Chemoselective Removal of Protecting Groups from O-Glycosyl Amino Acid and Peptide (Methoxyethoxy)ethyl Esters Using Lipases and Papain

1996

The selective C-terminal deprotection of O-glycopeptide (methoxyethoxy)ethyl esters is achieved under mild conditions (pH 6.6, 37 degrees C) by enzymatic hydrolysis using papain or lipase M from Mucor javanicus to give building blocks useful for chain-extending glycopeptide synthesis. On the other hand, the selective removal of acetyl protecting groups from the saccharide portion of glycopeptides is accomplished by alternative enzymatic hydrolysis with lipase WG from wheat germ to furnish model substrates for enzymatic glycosyl transfer reactions in order to extend the carbohydrate side chain of these conjugates.

Fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl-N-methylamino Acids Synthesized in a Flow Tube-in-Tube Reactor with a Liquid-Liquid Semipermeable Membrane

2013

Both steps of the N-methylation of 9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl (Fmoc) amino acids were carried out in a microstructured tube-in-tube reactor equipped with a semipermeable Teflon® AF 2400 membrane as the inner tubing. In the first step, gaseous formaldehyde was passed through the inner membrane to effect the acid-catalyzed conversion of the Fmoc amino acids into the corresponding N-Fmoc oxazolidinones. In the second step, liquid–liquid transfer of trifluoroacetic acid was used for the first time in such a reactor for the reductive opening of these oxazolidinones to give Fmoc N-methylamino acids in high yields.

Protein kinase CK2 governs the molecular decision between encephalitogenic T H 17 cell and T reg cell development

2016

T helper 17 (TH17) cells represent a discrete TH cell subset instrumental in the immune response to extracellular bacteria and fungi. However, TH17 cells are considered to be detrimentally involved in autoimmune diseases like multiple sclerosis (MS). In contrast to TH17 cells, regulatory T (Treg) cells were shown to be pivotal in the maintenance of peripheral tolerance. Thus, the balance between Treg cells and TH17 cells determines the severity of a TH17 cell-driven disease and therefore is a promising target for treating autoimmune diseases. However, the molecular mechanisms controlling this balance are still unclear. Here, we report that pharmacological inhibition as well as genetic ablat…

Synthetic Tumor-Associated Glycopeptide Antigens from the Tandem Repeat Sequence of the Epithelial Mucin MUC4

2004

In cancer research, the development of vaccines against tumor-associated antigens is of particular interest. Epithelial cells express mucin type glycoproteins, which are extensively O-glycosylated. In case of cancer, the expression of these mucins is increased, and their carbohydrate side chains show an aberrant glycosylation pattern. A set of single and double glycosylated hexadecapeptides representing the tandem repeat sequence of the epithelial mucin MUC4 carrying different tumor-associated carbohydrate antigens was prepared by sequential solid-phase glycopeptide synthesis. The crucial glycosyl amino acid building blocks containing the T N , T, sialyl-T N and (2,6)-sialyl-T antigens were…

In a new concept of fully synthetic vaccines, the role of T-helper cells is emphasized. Here, a synthetic antitumor vaccine consisting of a diglycosylated tumor-associated MUC1 glycopeptide as the B-cell epitope was covalently cross-linked with three different T-helper-cell epitopes via squaric acid ligation of two linear (glyco)peptides. In mice this four-component vaccine administered without external immune-stimulating promoters elicit titers of MUC1-specific antibodies that were about eight times higher than those induced by a vaccine containing only one T-helper-cell epitope.

The (2-phenyl-2-trimethylsilyl)ethyl-(PTMSEL) linker represents a novel fluoride-sensitive anchor for the solid-phase synthesis of protected peptides and glycopeptides. Its cleavage is achieved under almost neutral conditions using tetrabutylammonium fluoride trihydrate in dichloromethane thus allowing the construction of complex molecules sensitive to basic and acidic media commonly required for the cleavage of standard linker systems. The advantages of the PTMSEL linker are demonstrated in the synthesis of glycopeptides from the liver intestine (LI)-cadherin and the mucin MUC1, bearing carbohydrate moieties such as N-linked chitobiose or O-linked sialyl-T(N)-residues. The synthesis of the…

Synthetic Inhibitors of Cell Adhesion: A Glycopeptide from E-Selectin Ligand 1 (ESL-1) with the Arabino Sialyl Lewisx Structure

2001

Particularly selective methods are required for the synthesis of arabino sialyl Lewisx glycopeptides owing to the acid-labile β-arabinopyranoside bond. It is important for the inhibition of cell adhesion that the arabino sialyl Lewisx glycopeptide 1, which contains the Gly 672 -Asp 681 sequence of the E-selectin Ligand 1 (ESL-1), binds ten times more strongly than sialyl Lewisx to E-selectin, although it is monovalent and does not contain L-fucose, which is considered essential.

Synthetic MUC1 Antitumor Vaccine Candidates with Varied Glycosylation Pattern Bearing R/S-configured Pam3 CysSerLys4.

The Toll-like receptor 2 ligand Pam3 CysSer is of particular interest for the construction synthetic vaccines because of its ability to stimulate of the innate immune system. Such vaccines usually comprise Pam3 CysSer with the natural R-configuration at the glycerol 2-position. Pam3 CysSer peptide vaccines with natural configuration have been shown to be more efficient than the corresponding R/S diastereomers. In order to clarify whether the effect of the configuration of Pam3 Cys on the immune response also applies to glycopeptide vaccines, MUC1 glycopeptide-lipopeptide vaccines bearing either R- or R/S-configured Pam3 CysSerLys4 were compared for their immunological effects. In order to f…

For comparison, corresponding polymeric glycomimetics were prepared in which the crucial "single carbohydrate" substructures fucose, galactose, and sialic acid side chains were randomly linked to the PHPMA backbone (P3 or P4 (O-sulfated tyramine)). All polymers have an identical degree of polymerization, as they are derived from the same precursor polymer. Binding assays to selectins, to activated endo…

Initially, lasubin II was synthesized diastereoselectively in racemic form [3]. Asymmetric syntheses of lasubin II were achieved based on stereoselective transformations of enantiomerically pure substrates [4] or, for example, via a diastereoselective aza-Diels-Alder reaction using a resolved chiral arylaldehyde tricarbonylchromium complex [5]. Recently, an enantioselectively catalyzed aza-Diels-Alder reaction [6] and a [2+2+2] cycloaddition reaction [7] were successfully used for the synthesis of enantiomerically pure lasubin II.

In binding assays the O-sulfated structure A showed high affinity towards P-selectin, the non-sulfated towards E-selectin.

Synthetic Antitumor Vaccines Through Coupling of Mucin Glycopeptide Antigens to Proteins

2017

The requirements for coupling reactions of carbohydrate molecules very much depend upon the biological recognition processes that should be investigated and upon the target structures of the desired carbohydrate ligand. If the carbohydrate conjugate itself is the recognized ligand, as for example, the binding site of a P-selectin ligand comprising sialyl-LewisX and a specific peptide sequence, the natural glycoside bond must be installed. A stereoselective and regioselective block glycosylation between a sialyl-LewisX trichloroacetimidate and a partially deprotected Thomsen–Friedenreich antigen derivative was developed to achieve this aim. In contrast, the coupling reactions by which glycop…

The Allyl Ester as Carboxy-Protecting Group in the Stereoselective Construction of Neuraminic-Acid Glycosides

1988

The application of the allyl-ester moiety as protecting principle for the carboxy group of N-acetylneuraminic acid is described. Peracetylated allyl neuraminate 2 is synthesized by reacting the caesium salt of the acid 1 with allyl bromide. Treatment of 2 with HCl in AcCl or with HF/pyridine gives the corresponding 2-chloro or 2-fluoro derivatives 3 and 4, respectively (Scheme 1). In the presence of Ag2CO3, the 2-chloro carbohydrate 3 reacts with di-O-isopropylidene-protected galactose 5 to give the 2–6 linked disaccharide with the α-D-anomer 6a predominating (α-D/β-D = 6:1; Scheme 2).

The electronic substituent influence on the thermally allowed electrocyclic interconversion cyclobutene/butadiene. A MNDO study

1984

The effects of donor/acceptor substitution on the conrotatory cyclobutene/butadiene interconversion have not yet been experimentally studied. MNDO Synchronous Transit/MINIMAX calculations for all possible combinations of NH2/NH3 + 3 groups at the fissile single bond reveal very large substituent effects on the opening reactions and reverse cyclisations. Diamino(1b/2b), diammonio-(1c/2c) and amino-ammonio-substitutions (1d/2d) change the activation energy of the reference ring opening reaction (1a →2a) from 49.9 kcal/mol to 34.7, 29.8 and 26.0 kcal/mol, respectively. This rate enhancement parallels the monotone shift of the transition state pathcoordinate towards the cyclobutenes. Relative t…

Stereoselective Synthesis of α-Arylalkylamines by Glycosylation-induced Asymmetric Addition of Organometallic Compounds to Imines

2009

Arylalkylamines are of interest as building blocks for the synthesis of biologically active compounds and as chiral ligands or chiral auxiliaries in stereoselective syntheses [1]. Their stereoselective synthesis has been achieved by enantioselective reduction of ketimines using chiral reagents [2], as for example Corey’s oxaborolidines [3], or proline-derived triacyloxyborohydrides [4]. Particularly efficient asymmetric syntheses of chiral arylalkylamines have been accomplished by Noyori et al. [5] through enantioselective catalysis of hydrogen transfer reactions using a chiral 1,2-diphenyl-ethylenediamine ruthenium catalyst. Enantioselective transferhydrogenationshave also been achieved us…

Towards the Development of Antitumor Vaccines: A Synthetic Conjugate of a Tumor-Associated MUC1 Glycopeptide Antigen and a Tetanus Toxin Epitope.

2000

Proliferation of cytotoxic T-cells, a prerequisite for the development of antitumor vaccines, was induced by 1, but not by its partial structures A and B. The conjugate 1 containing a tumor-associated Sialyl-TN -MUC-1 glycopeptide antigen A and a T-cell epitope B of tetanus toxin was synthesized by fragment condensation on a solid phase.

Glycopeptide-functionalized gold nanoparticles for antibody induction against the tumor associated mucin-1 glycoprotein

2015

We report the preparation of gold nanoparticle (AuNP)-based vaccine candidates against the tumor-associated form of the mucin-1 (MUC1) glycoprotein. Chimeric peptides, consisting of a glycopeptide sequence derived from MUC1 and the T-cell epitope P30 sequence were immobilized on PEGylated AuNPs and the ability to induce selective antibodies in vivo was investigated. After immunization, mice showed significant MHC-II mediated immune responses and their antisera recognized human MCF-7 breast cancer cells. Nanoparticles designed according to this report may become key players in the development of anticancer vaccines.

ChemInform Abstract: Carbohydrate Auxiliaries in Stereoselective Syntheses of Decahydroquinoline Alkaloids.

2010

Using tetra-O-pivaloyl-β-D-galactopyranosylamine as the chiral auxiliary, both trans- and cis-annelated decahydroquinoline alkaloids can be synthesized stereoselectively. This methodology of asymmetric synthesis is based on the effect that both enantiomers of 2,6-disubstituted piperidin-4-ones are selectively and alternatively accessible using the auxiliary as the identical stereodifferentiating tool. In addition, the carbohydrate auxiliary controls the stereoselective protonation of enolates formed by conjugate addition of cuprates to N-galactosyl octahydroquinolin-4-ones. The syntheses of trans-4a-epi-pumiliotoxin C and cis-4a-epi-perhydro-219A illustrate this concept of asymmetric synthe…

Synthetic Glycopeptides for the Development of Antitumour Vaccines

2003

Glycoproteins of tumour cells often are aberrantly glycosylated. In its tumour-associated form, the epithelial mucin MUC1 carries short saccharide structures such as TN, T, sialyl-TN, and sialyl-T antigens. Due to the incomplete saccharide components, peptide epitopes of the backbone become accessible to the immune system. For the construction of synthetic antitumour vaccines, glycopeptides have been synthesized which contain tumour-associated saccharide antigens and peptide sequences from the tandem repeat portion of MUC1. In the synthesis of these glycopeptides, preformed glycosyl–amino acid building blocks are applied in solution- or solid-phase strategies. Examples are given for the use…

Synthesis of ?-fucosyl glycosides and disaccharides using 4-methoxybenzyl (Mpm) protected fucosyl donors

1992

The 4-methoxybenzyl (Mpm) group removable by selective oxidation was applied as a nonneighbouring-group-active protection of fucose hydroxy functions in the stereoselective synthesis of α-fucosides of acceptors containing double bonds sensitive to hydrogenation. With this aim, the synthesis of the α-fucosyl chloride (4) carrying the acidsensitive Mpm protection was elaborated.

Stereoselektive c-glycosidsynthese durch titan-(iv)-katalysierte addition von silylenolethern an 2-acyloxy-3-keto-glycale

1984

Abstract C-Glycosides are stereoselectively formed by the titan-(IV)-catalysed addition of silyl enolethers 2 to 2,4,6-tri-O-acyl-1-deoxy-D-erythro-hex-1-enopyran-3-uloses 1 followed by elimination of the 4-acyloxy substituent. Cyclohexenyl silylether 2a reacts with 2-acetoxy-3-keto-glycal derivative la forming only one product 3a . Thus, the reaction seems to be diastereospecific with respect to both new chiral centers of the product.

Stereoselective Synthesis of Chiral Piperidine Derivatives Employing Arabinopyranosylamine as the Carbohydrate Auxiliary.

2006

Stereoselective synthesis of 2-substituted dehydropiperidinones and their further transformation to variously disubstituted piperidine derivatives was achieved employing D-arabinopyranosylamine as the stereodifferentiating carbohydrate auxiliary. A domino Mannich–Michael reaction of 1-methoxy-3-(trimethylsiloxy)butadiene (Danishefsky's diene) with O-pivaloylated arbinosylaldimines furnished N-arabinosyl dehydropiperidinones in high diastereoselectivity. Subsequent conjugate cuprate addition gave 2,6-cis-substituted piperidinones, while enolate alkylation furnished 2,3-trans-substituted dehydropiperidinones. Electrophilic substitution at the enamine structure afforded 5-nitro- and 5-halogen…

A Synthetic MUC1 Anticancer Vaccine Containing Mannose Ligands for Targeting Macrophages and Dendritic Cells

2017

A MUC1 anticancer vaccine equipped with covalently linked divalent mannose ligands was found to improve the antigen uptake and presentation by targeting mannose-receptor-positive macrophages and dendritic cells. It induced much stronger specific IgG immune responses in mice than the non-mannosylated reference vaccine. Mannose coupling also led to increased numbers of macrophages, dendritic cells, and CD4+ T cells in the local lymph organs. Comparison of di- and tetravalent mannose ligands revealed an increased binding of the tetravalent version, suggesting that higher valency improves binding to the mannose receptor. The mannose-coupled vaccine and the non-mannosylated reference vaccine ind…

2004

A 2,3,4-tri-O-pivaloylated beta-D-galactopyranosyl azide bearing a hydroxy-functionalized spacer unit at the C-6 position of the galactose was synthesized and immobilized on the solid phase by using a polymer-bound chlorosilane. The azide was reduced to the corresponding galactopyranosylamine, which served as a versatile chiral auxiliary in highly diastereoselective Ugi four-component condensation reactions at ambient temperature. Fluoride-induced cleavage from the polymeric support furnished N-glycosylated N-acylated alpha-amino acid amides. The reaction of the immobilized galactosylamine with aldehydes gave rise to the corresponding aldimines, which underwent a domino Mannich-Michael cond…

Synthesis of tumor-associated glycopeptide antigens for the development of tumor-selective vaccines

2004

In contrast to normal cells, the glycoprotein profile on epithelial tumor cells is distinctly altered. Due to an incomplete formation of the glycan side-chains resulting from a premature sialylation, additional peptide epitopes become accessible to the immune system in mucin-type glycoproteins on tumor cells. These tumor-associated structure alterations constitute the basis for a selective immunological attack on cancer cells. For the construction of immunostimulating antigens, glycopeptide partial structures from the mucins MUC1 and MUC4 carrying the tumor-associated sialyl-T(N), alpha2,6-sialyl-T and alpha2,3-sialyl-T antigens have been synthesized. Employing different linkers such as the…

Synthesis of the Glycopeptide Partial Sequence A80-A84 of Human Fibroblast Interferon

1985

The glycopentapeptide H-(GlcNAcβ1-)Asn-Glu-Thr-Ile-Val-OH (10) representing the partial sequence A80–A84 of human fibroblast interferon was synthesized using the newly developed allyl-ester protection of carboxy functions. The allyl esters, which are stable to acids and to bases, can be cleaved under very mild, neutral conditions using tris(triphenylphosphine)rhodium(I) chloride or tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(0) as a catalyst. This synthetic method opens up a preparative route to glycopeptide model structures of glycoproteins of high biological interest.

Glycosyl azides as building blocks in convergent syntheses of oligomeric lactosamine and Lewisx saccharides

1997

Abstract Oligosaccharides containing type 2 lactosamine repeating units, e.g. neo-lacto-octaose and trimeric Lewis x derivatives, are constructed using neo-lactosamine azide building blocks. The azido group provides a favorable protection of the anomeric position which is stable to versatile protecting group manipulations and glycosylation reactions.

Synthetic MUC1 Antitumor Vaccine with Incorporated 2,3-Sialyl-T Carbohydrate Antigen Inducing Strong Immune Responses with Isotype Specificity

2018

The endothelial glycoprotein MUC1 is known to underlie alterations in cancer by means of aberrant glycosylation accompanied by changes in morphology. The heavily shortened glycans induce a collapse of the peptide backbone and enable accessibility of the latter to immune cells, rendering it a tumor-associated antigen. Synthetic vaccines based on MUC1 tandem repeat motifs, comprising tumor-associated 2,3-sialyl-T antigen, conjugated to the immunostimulating tetanus toxoid, are reported herein. Immunization with these vaccines in a simple water/oil emulsion produced a strong immune response in mice to which stimulation with complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) was not superior.

Carbohydrates as chiral templates: asymmetric ugi-synthesis of alpha-amino acids using galactosylamines as the chiral matrices

1988

Abstract In the presence of Lewis acid catalysts O-acetyl- (1) and O-pivaloyl- (2) protected β-D-galactopyranosylamines react with aldehydes, isocyanides and carboxylic acids in Ugi-four-component-condensations to give the corresponding N-galactosyl-amino acid amide derivatives 3,5 in almost quantitative yields. Zinc chloride is the most effective Lewis acid catalyst. At 0°C or even at room temperature the (2R,β-D)-diastereomers of the amino acid derivatives 3,5 are formed with high diastereoselectivity. If the sterically more demanding O-pivaloyl galactosylamine 2 is used at -78°C to -25°C the stereoselectivity often exeeds 20:1 favouring the (2R,β-D) diastereomers 5. After one recrystalli…

Abstract The selective synthesis of β- d -mannosides was achieved by first synthesizing β- d -glucosides that carry a N -phenylcarbamoyl protecting group at O-3. These derivatives were transformed into the corresponding β- d -mannosides by intramolecular nucleophilic substitution with inversion of configuration at C-2, the O -triflyl group being the leaving group. Subsequent intramolecular attack of the neighboring carbamoyl group resulted in the formation of the 2,3-carbonate of the desired β d -mannoside.

N-Urethane protected, peracetylated glucosamine is converted into its 1-thio (1-bromo) derivative and used for glycosylation of a variety of protected serine or threonine derivatives as acceptors. The urethane group is easily exchanged for the natural N-acetyl moiety and O-deacetylation is achieved with hydrazine/methanol. The resulting O-GlcNAc derivatives are subjected to an enzymatic galactosylation procedure using β-1,4-galactosyltransferase (EC 2.4.1.22) to furnish O-glycopeptides of the neolactosamine type.

However, in chloroform in the presence of heterogeneous zinc chloride the same auxiliary alternatively leads to an excess of the ( S )-diastereomers.

Carbohydrates as Polyfunctional Scaffolds in Combinatorial Synthesis

Carbohydrates are inexpensive, polyfunctional molecules which contain a high density of stereogenic centers. Taking advantage of these particular properties monosaccharides like glucose or mannose have been used for the construction of peptidomimetics which simulate recognition sites of somatostatin or RGD ligands of integrins. Due to their poly functionality, carbohydrates are considered promising scaffolds for combinatorial syntheses either in solution or on solid phase. The application of carbohydrate scaffolds, however, requires sets of orthogonally stable, selectively removable protecting groups, and the challenge in this combinatorial strategy increases with increasing number of hydro…

3.13 Carbohydrate Derived Auxiliaries: Amino Sugar and Glycosylamine Auxiliaries

2012

The stereodifferentiating potential of carbohydrate auxiliaries is illustrated by examples of oxazolidinones derived from amino sugars and aldimines of glycosylamines. Taking advantage of the bicyclic structure of amino sugar-derived oxazolidinones, reactions of their unsaturated or deprotonated N -acyl derivatives show an efficient exo - versus endo -differentiation. High diastereoselectivity is achieved in the syntheses of β -branched or α -substituted carboxylic acid derivatives. Imines of glycosylamines, in particular of 2,3,4,6-tetra- O -pivaloyl- β - d -galactopyranosylamine, are characterized by a conformation stabilized through the exo -anomeric effect and by their ability to coordi…

The Development of Vaccines from Synthetic Tumor‐Associated Mucin Glycopeptides and their Glycosylation‐Dependent Immune Response

2021

Tumor-associated carbohydrate antigens are overexpressed as altered-self in most common epithelial cancers. Their glycosylation patterns differ from those of healthy cells, functioning as an ID for cancer cells. Scientists have been developing anti-cancer vaccines based on mucin glycopeptides, yet the interplay of delivery system, adjuvant and tumor associated MUC epitopes in the induced immune response is not well understood. The current state of the art suggests that the identity, abundancy and location of the glycans on the MUC backbone are all key parameters in the cellular and humoral response. This review shares lessons learned by us in over two decades of research in glycopeptide vac…

Stereoselective Synthesis of Quinolizidine Alkaloids: (–)-Lasubin II

2008

Initially, lasubin II was synthesized diastereoselectively in racemic form [3]. Asymmetric syntheses of lasubin II were achieved based on stereoselective transformations of enantiomerically pure substrates [4] or, for example, via a diastereoselective aza-Diels-Alder reaction using a resolved chiral arylaldehyde tricarbonylchromium complex [5]. Recently, an enantioselectively catalyzed aza-Diels-Alder reaction [6] and a [2+2+2] cycloaddition reaction [7] were successfully used for the synthesis of enantiomerically pure lasubin II.

C-Glycosyl amino acids through hydroboration-cross-coupling of exo-glycals and their application in automated solid-phase synthesis.

2013

O-Glycosylation is one of the most important post-translational modifications of proteins. The attachment of carbohydrates to the peptide backbone influences the conformation as well as the solubility of the conjugates and can even be essential for binding to specific ligands in cell-cell interactions or for active transport over membranes. This makes glycopeptides an interesting class of compounds for medical applications. To enhance the long-term availability of these molecules in vivo, the stabilization of the glycosidic bond between the amino acid residue and the carbohydrate is of interest. The described modular approach affords β-linked C-glycosyl amino acids by a sequence of Petasis …

(p-Sulfomethyl)phenylalanine as a mimic of O-sulfatyl-tyrosine in synthetic partial sequences of P-Selectin glycoprotein ligand 1 (PSGL-1)

2007

Abstract Fmoc- l -( p -sulfomethyl)phenylalanine, a bioisosteric mimic of acid-sensitive O -sulfatyl tyrosine, was synthesized from l -tyrosine according to a novel route. Partial sequences of the recognition site of P-Selectin glycoprotein ligand 1 (PSGL-1), which contain (sulfomethyl)phenylalanine were synthesized on solid-phase. By fragment condensation, a sialyl Lewis x peptide conjugate containing a (sulfomethyl)phenylalanine mimic of O -sulfatyl tyrosine was prepared without destruction of the acid-sensitive fucoside bond within the saccharide side chain. Compounds of this type are of interest as sufficiently acid-stable potential inhibitors of P-Selectin in inflammatory processes.

A new method of anomeric protection and activation based on the conversion of glycosyl azides into glycosyl fluorides

1993

Glycosyl azides provide reliable anomeric protection stable to conditions for hydrolytic removal of ester groups, for reductive opening or release of acetalic diol protection, for the introduction of ether-type protection, and for glycosylation processes. The utility of this anomeric protection is further enhanced as glycosyl azides may be converted into glycosyl fluorides, which can be activated for glycosylation reactions. To this end, glycosyl azides have been subjected to 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition with di-tert-butyl acetylenedicarboxylate. On treatment with hydrogen fluoride-pyridine complex the N-glycosyl triazole derivatives directly give glycosyl fluorides.

Treatment of these cyclic enaminones with N-bromo-succinimide yields the corresponding 2-substituted 5-bromo-5,6-dehydropiperidinones which react with L-Selectride R © or methylcuprate to afford the saturated bromo-piperidinones with high diastereoselectivity. Condensation reactions of these products with thioamides afford thiazolopiperidines.

Glycopeptides of tumor-associated mucin MUC1 are promising target structures for the development of antitumor vaccines. Because these endogenous structures were weakly immunogenic, they were coupled to immune-response-stimulating T-cell epitopes and the Pam(3)Cys lipopeptide to induce strong immune responses in mice.

The development of synthetic antitumour vaccines from mucin glycopeptide antigens.

Based on important cell-biological and biochemical results concerning the structural difference between membrane glycoproteins of normal epithelial cells and epithelial tumour cells, tumour-associated glycopeptide antigens have been chemically synthesised and structurally confirmed. Glycopeptide structures of the tandem repeat sequence of mucin MUC1 of epithelial tumour cells constitute the most promising tumour-associated antigens. In order to generate a sufficient immunogenicity of these endogenous structures, usually tolerated by the immune system, these synthetic glycopeptide antigens were conjugated to immune stimulating components: in fully synthetic two-component vaccines either with…

Synthetic Glycopeptides from the Mucin Family as Potential Tools in Cancer Immunotherapy

2006

Compared to glycoproteins of healthy cells, glycoproteins of tumor cells are often aberrantly glycosylated. Thus, glycopeptide fragments of surface glycoproteins of tumor cells are of interest as tumor-associated antigens for the distinction between normal and tumor cells. Cancer immunotherapy directed at selectively targeting these tumor-associated glycoprotein structure alterations--deficient glycosylation and, thus, exposure of peptide epitopes which are masked in normal cells--is considered a promising approach for the treatment of cancer. For this purpose, glycoproteins from the mucin family are of particular interest. Mucins belong to a class of heavily O-glycosylated, high-molecular …

Antitumor Vaccines Based on Synthetic Mucin Glycopeptides

2011

The interest in tumor-associated glycoconjugate antigens was particularly initiated by Springer, who published in 1984 that glycoproteins on the outer cell-membrane of epithelial tumor cells have an altered glycosylation consisting of the Thomsen-Friedenreich (T-) antigen and its precursor the TN-antigen structure (Springer 1984). He and his coworkers also had found that monoclonal antibodies induced with glycoproteins from tumor cell membranes showed cross-reactivity to desialylated glycophorin A. It was concluded from these observations that the T-and TN-glycoproteins on the epithelial tumor cells must be structurally related to asialoglycophorin A (Springer et al. 1983) (Fig. 11.1a). Gly…

Immunization with a Synthetic Human MUC1 Glycopeptide Vaccine against Tumor-Associated MUC1 Breaks Tolerance in Human MUC1 Transgenic Mice.

Breaking tolerance is crucial for effective tumor immunotherapy. We showed that vaccines containing tumor-associated human MUC1 glycopeptides induce strong humoral antitumor responses in mice. The question remained whether such vaccines work in humans, in systems where huMUC1 is a self-antigen. To clarify the question, mice transgenic in expressing huMUC1, mimicking the self-tolerant environment, and wild-type mice were vaccinated with a synthetic vaccine. This vaccine comprised STn and Tn antigens bound to a MUC1 tandem repeat peptide coupled to tetanus toxoid. The vaccine induced strong immune responses in wild-type and huMUC1-transgenic mice without auto-aggressive side effects. All anti…

Synthetic multivalent glycopeptide-lipopeptide antitumor vaccines: impact of the cluster effect on the killing of tumor cells.

2014

Multivalent synthetic vaccines were obtained by solid-phase synthesis of tumor-associated MUC1 glycopeptide antigens and their coupling to a Pam3 Cys lipopeptide through click reactions. These vaccines elicited immune responses in mice without the use of any external adjuvant. The vaccine containing four copies of a MUC1 sialyl-TN antigen showed a significant cluster effect. It induced in mice prevailing IgG2a antibodies, which bind to MCF-7 breast tumor cells and initiate the killing of these tumor cells by activation of the complement-dependent cytotoxicity complex.

Biomimetic synthesis of the tumor-associated (2,3)-sialyl-T antigen and its incorporation into glycopeptide antigens from the mucins MUC1 and MUC4.

2004

Glycoproteins on epithelial tumor cells often exhibit aberrant glycosylation profiles. The incomplete formation of the glycan side chains resulting from a down-regulated glucosamine transfer and a premature sialylation results in additional peptide epitopes, which become accessible to the immune system in mucin-type glycoproteins. These cancer-specific structure alterations are considered to be a promising basis for selective immunological attack on tumor cells. Among the tumor-associated saccharide antigens, the (2,3)-sialyl-T antigen has been identified as the most abundant glycan, found in several different carcinoma cell lines. According to a linear biomimetic strategy, the (2,3)-sialyl…

Synthesis of Biologically Interesting Glycopeptides.

1992

哺乳動物に見い出される大部分のタンパクは糖タンパクである。それらの糖鎖は生物学的選択性、特に膜上での認識過程に重要な働きをしている。全ての糖タンパクは糖鎖とペプチドとの間にグリコシド結合を有している。それゆえに糖ペプチドの化学合成は、立体特異的なグリコシド結合の生成と、グリコシド結合に影響を与えない選択的な保護が要求される。ベンジルグループとそれらの水素添加による脱離法は、これらの要求を満たす。しかしながら、これらの保護法を用いる方法は糖質の水酸基のブロックを必要とするので、ペプチド部分の官能基は撰択的に脱離可能でそしてベンジル基に対して orthogonal に安定なグループで保護されなければならない。この意味においてフルオレニルメトキシカルボニル (Fmoc) 基と、弱塩基、モルフォリンによる脱離と、パラジウム (0) 触媒によるアリル基転移によって脱離可能なアリルオキシカルボニル (Aloc) 基は、糖ペプチド化学においてアミノ基の保護基として有用である事が明らかにされた。同様なパラジウム (0) の化学を用いるアリルエステルと、酸により除去可能なtert-ブチルエステルはカルボキシル基の保護に有用である事が分かった。ベンジル基とアリルエステル (HYCRAM™) を用いる糖ペプチドの固相合成におけるアンカーシステムとして有効に利用される事が示された。

Abstract Preventive vaccination against tumor-associated endogenous antigens is considered to be an attractive strategy for the induction of a curative immune response concomitant with a long-lasting immunologic memory. The mucin MUC1 is a promising tumor antigen, as its tumor-associated form differs from the glycoprotein form expressed on healthy cells. Due to aberrant glycosylation in tumor cells, the specific peptide epitopes in its backbone are accessible and can be bound by antibodies induced by vaccination. Breast cancer patients develop per se only low levels of T cells and antibodies recognizing tumor-associated MUC1, and clinical trials with tumor-associated MUC1 yielded unsatisfac…

Synthesis of glycopeptides and neoglycoproteins containing the fucosylated linkage region of N-glycoproteins.

Abstract N-Glycoproteins fucosylated in the core region occur in tumor membranes and virus envelopes. Partial structures of such N-glycoproteins containing fucosylated chitobiosyl asparagine conjugates were synthesized using the allyloxycarbonyl (Aloc) and the tert-butyl ester protecting groups in the peptide portion. As the α-fucosidic bond of the conjugates revealed to be very sensitive to acids when carrying ether-type protecting groups, a method for exchanging the protecting groups of the fucose portion of saccharides was developed. Conjugates containing O-acetyl protected fucose proved to be stable against acids used in glycopeptide syntheses. These methods were applied in the synthesi…

Enhanced immunogenicity of multivalent MUC1 glycopeptide antitumour vaccines based on hyperbranched polymers.

2015

Enhancing the immunogenicity of an antitumour vaccine still poses a major challenge. It depends upon the selected antigen and the mode of its presentation. We here describe a fully synthetic antitumour vaccine, which addresses both aspects. For the antigen, a tumour-associated MUC1 glycopeptide as B-cell epitope was synthesised and linked to the immunostimulating T-cell epitope P2 derived from tetanus toxoid. The MUC1-P2 conjugate is presented multivalently on a hyperbranched polyglycerol to the immune system. In comparison to a related vaccine of lower multivalency, this vaccine exposing more antigen structures on the hyperbranched polymer induced significantly stronger immune responses in…

Chemoenzymatic “Chiral-Pool” Synthesis of (+)-exo-Brevicomin from Carbohydrates Using Fructose 1,6-Diphosphate Aldolase Fructose-1,6-diphosphate aldolase (EC 4.1.2.13) catalyzes the stereospecific aldol reaction between 1,3-dihydroxyacetone phosphate (4) and 5-oxohexanal (3) or its 5-dithiane-protected analog 8. The products of the aldol reactions are dephosphorylated with acid phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.2). Whereas the aldol adduct of 3 cyclizes spontaneously to give the bicyclic brevicomin precursor 3, the adduct of 8 first has to be deprotected with sulfuryl chloride and wet silica gel. The resulting bicyclic α-hydroxy ketone 3 is reduced with LiAlH4 to form the 1,2-diol 14 which is then deox…

ChemInform Abstract: Synthesis of α-Fucosyl Glycosides and Disaccharides Using 4- Methoxybenzyl (Mpm) Protected Fucosyl Donors.

2010

The 4-methoxybenzyl (Mpm) group removable by selective oxidation was applied as a nonneighbouring-group-active protection of fucose hydroxy functions in the stereoselective synthesis of α-fucosides of acceptors containing double bonds sensitive to hydrogenation. With this aim, the synthesis of the α-fucosyl chloride (4) carrying the acidsensitive Mpm protection was elaborated.

Microarray analysis of antibodies induced with synthetic antitumor vaccines : specificity against diverse mucin core structures

2017

Glycoprotein research is pivotal for vaccine development and biomarker discovery. Many successful methodologies for reliably increasing the antigenicity toward tumor-associated glycopeptide structures have been reported. Deeper insights into the quality and specificity of the raised polyclonal, humoral reactions are often not addressed, despite the fact that an immunological memory, which produces antibodies with cross-reactivity to epitopes exposed on healthy cells, may cause autoimmune diseases. In the current work, three MUC1 antitumor vaccine candidates conjugated with different immune stimulants are evaluated immunologically. For assessment of the influence of the immune stimulant on a…

Oxacyclododecindione, a Novel Inhibitor of IL-4 Signaling from Exserohilum rostratum

2008

In a screening program for new metabolites from fungi inhibiting the IL-4 mediated signal transduction, a novel chlorinated macrocyclic lactone, designated as oxacyclododecindione, was isolated from fermentations of the imperfect fungus Exserohilum rostratum. The structure was determined by a combination of spectroscopic techniques. Oxacyclododecindione inhibits the IL-4 induced expression of the reporter gene secreted alkaline phosphatase (SEAP) in transiently transfected HepG2 cells with IC50 values of 20-25 ng/ml (54-67.5 nM). Studies on the mode of action of the compound revealed that the inhibition of the IL-4 dependent signaling pathway is caused by blocking the binding of the activat…

Inhibitors of inducible NO synthase expression: total synthesis of (S)-curvularin and its ring homologues.

2008

(S)-Curvularin and its 13-, 14-, and 16-membered lactone homologues were synthesized through a uniform strategy in which a Kochi oxidative decarboxylation and ring-closing metathesis reactions constitute the key processes. In the evaluation of the anti-inflammatory effects of the synthesized compounds in assays using cells stably transfected with a human iNOS promoter-luciferase reporter gene construct, the 14- and 16-membered homologues showed a slightly higher inhibitory effect towards iNOS promoter activity than curvularin itself. However, the larger ring homologues also exhibited higher cytotoxicity, manifest in downregulated eNOS promoter activity. In contrast, the di-O-acetyl and 4-ch…

Fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl-ProtectedO-Glycosyl-N-methyl Amino Acids: Building Blocks for the Synthesis of Conformationally Tuned Glycopeptide Antigens

2015

Peptide antibiotics often contain N-methylated amino acids. These N-methylamino components enhance the metabolic stability and strongly influence the conformational behavior of these peptide drugs. N-Methyl-O-glycosyl amino acids, in particular, threonine and serine derivatives, are unknown so far. Fmoc-protected N-methyl-O-glycosyl-threonine and -serine building blocks, including sialyl TN antigens, have been synthesized for the first time by converting the Fmoc-protected O-glycosyl amino acids or their tert-butyl esters into the corresponding oxazolidinones followed by reductive ring-opening. These new components are considered interesting for the construction of modified mucin glycopepti…

β-Branched α-Halo Carboxylic Acid Derivatives via Stereoselective 1,4 Addition of Dialkylaluminum Chlorides to α,β-Unsaturated N-Acyloxazolidinones

1997

The stereoselective synthesis of β-branched α-halo carboxylic acids containing two newly formed chiral centers is accomplished by a reaction cascade consisting of the 1,4 addition of dialkylaluminum chlorides to α,β-unsaturated N-acyloxazolidinones and subsequent reaction of the intermediate aluminum enolates with N-halosuccinimide. The most efficient stereocontrol in these tandem processes has been achieved with oxazolidinones derived from glucosamine. Not only aryl substituted but also purely aliphatic β-branched α-halo carboxylic acids can be stereoselectively synthesized by this method. However, the reactions of β-aryl α,β-unsaturated N-acyloxazolidinones show the highest diastereoselec…

Convenient Synthesis of Biologically Important Retinoids

1995

The toxic and teratogenic effects caused by the highly biologically active (all-E)-retinoic acid and its derivatives prompted us to synthesize a number of retinoids. We developed synthetic approaches to (all-E)-retinyl β-D-glucuronide 3, methyl (retinoyl β-D-glucopyranoside)uronate 5, (all-E)-retinoic acid β-D-glucopyranosyl ester 8 and (all-E)-retinoyl β-D-glucuronide 6 in high purity and yield. Compound 3 was synthesized under Koenigs-Knorr conditions from (all-E)-retinol and an α-halogenose. Compounds 5 and 8 were prepared by esterification of a silver salt of (all-E)-retinoic acid with an α-glycosyl halide in pyridine. (all-E)-Retinoyl β-D-glucuronide 6 was prepared by reaction of (all-…

2009

Arylalkylamines are of interest as building blocks for the synthesis of biologically active compounds and as chiral ligands or chiral auxiliaries in stereoselective syntheses [1]. Their stereoselective synthesis has been achieved by enantioselective reduction of ketimines using chiral reagents [2], as for example Corey’s oxaborolidines [3], or proline-derived triacyloxyborohydrides [4]. Particularly efficient asymmetric syntheses of chiral arylalkylamines have been accomplished by Noyori et al. [5] through enantioselective catalysis of hydrogen transfer reactions using a chiral 1,2-diphenyl-ethylenediamine ruthenium catalyst. Enantioselective transferhydrogenationshave also been achieved us…

2002

(2-Phenyl-2-trimethylsilyl)ethyl (PTMSE) esters of aminoacids and peptides are stable under the conditions of hydrogenolytic cleavage of benzoxycarbonyl(Z) and benzyl ester groups, base-induced removal of Fmoc groups, palladium(0)-catalyzed removal of allyloxycarbonyl (Aloc) and even acidolytic cleavage of Boc groups. PTMSE esters are also stable under the conditions of peptide condensation reactions. The PTMSE ester is selectively cleaved by treatment with tetrabutylammonium fluoride (TBAF) trihydrate in dichloromethane, i. e. under almost neutral conditions, within a few minutes and, therefore, considered a valuable novel carboxy protecting group.

Enantioselective Organocatalysis of Strecker and Mannich Reactions Based on Carbohydrates.

2007

Efficient organocatalysts for enantioselective Strecker and Mannich reactions were constructed from glucosamine as a readily accessible chiral scaffold. A variety of aromatic aldimines were subjected to hydrocyanation with good to excellent yield (72–98 %) and, in part, high enantioselectivity (69–95 % ee). Influence of the catalyst architecture on the enantioselectivity obviously arises from restrictions imposed on the conformational flexibility of the monosaccharidic backbone. In the asymmetric Mannich reaction moderate yields (up to 76 %) and enantioselectivities (up to 58 % ee) have been achieved with the described catalyst.

Arabinosylamine in Asymmetric Syntheses of Chiral Piperidine Alkaloids.

2004

The stereodifferentiating potential of arabinosyl aldimines was utilized in stereoselective syntheses of 2-substituted dehydropiperidinones and their further transformation to 2,6-cis-substituted piperidinones. The absolute configuration was proven by X-ray analysis and by the synthesis of the enantiomerically pure alkaloid (+)-dihydropinidine. The presented method offers the possibility to synthesize piperidine derivatives enantiomeric to those obtained by the application of the corresponding galactosylamine auxiliary.

The selective C-terminal deprotection of O-glycopeptide (methoxyethoxy)ethyl esters is achieved under mild conditions (pH 6.6, 37 degrees C) by enzymatic hydrolysis using papain or lipase M from Mucor javanicus to give building blocks useful for chain-extending glycopeptide synthesis. On the other hand, the selective removal of acetyl protecting groups from the saccharide portion of glycopeptides is accomplished by alternative enzymatic hydrolysis with lipase WG from wheat germ to furnish model substrates for enzymatic glycosyl transfer reactions in order to extend the carbohydrate side chain of these conjugates.

After N-galactosylation and subsequent O-silylation, nucleophilic addition of organometallic reagents proceeded with high regio- and stereoselectivity at 4-position. Substituents at position 3 were stereoselectively introduced by reaction of electrophiles with amide enolates of the N-galactosyl-2-piperidones.

Mucin Glycopeptide-Protein Conjugates - Promising Antitumor Vaccine Candidates

2015

Recent efforts towards the development of synthetic glycopeptide vaccines, which aim at the active immunization of patients against their own tumor tissues, are outlined. To achieve sufficient tumor selectivity, glycopeptides of the tandem repeat region of tumor-associated mucin, MUC1, have been synthesized. Since the endogenous structures usually exert low immunogenicity, these glycopeptide antigens, as B-cell epitopes, were conjugated with immunostimulating components. In the present short review, work is outlined in which the MUC1 B-cell epitope peptides are conjugated with bovine serum albumin (BSA), keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH), or tetanus toxoid (TTox). In particular, the synthetic…
