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

2010

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.

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.

Cell wall xyloglucan incorporation by xyloglucan endotransglucosylase/hydrolase in pine hypocotyls

2004

Abstract In the present study, we have examined the incorporation of labelled xyloglucan oligosaccharides into the cell wall xyloglucan of pine hypocotyl sections, and the effect of plant hormones on the incorporation and on XTH enzyme activity (EC 2.4.1.207). Xyloglucan heptasaccharide [ 3 H ]XXXGol was absorbed, transported and incorporated into the cell wall xyloglucan of de-rooted pine hypocotyls. Incorporation of [ 3 H ]XXXGol into soluble and cell wall xyloglucan was induced by IAA, brassinolides and XXXG in pine hypocotyl segments. A relationship between growth induction, by IAA, brassinolides and XXXG, and both soluble and cell wall-bound XTH was found. We suggest that IAA induced-g…

Synthesis of 1,3- and 2,3-Diglycosylated Indoles as Potential Trisaccharide Mimetics

2012

Diglycosylated heteroaromatics may serve as metabolically stable mimetics of trisaccharides. Herein, the preparation of several 1,3- and 2,3-diglycosylindoles by direct C-glycosylation of monoglycosylated precursors is described.

ChemInform Abstract: Synthesis of Tumor-Associated Glycopeptide Antigens

2010

Carbohydrates and peptides linked together in glycoproteins constitute important components of the molecular communication between cells in multicellular organisms. Cell morphogenesis and tumorigenesis are accompanied by changes in the glycoprotein profiles of the outer cell membranes. Glycopeptide fragments of glycoproteins that have altered structures in tumor cells are of interest as tumor-associated antigens for the distinction between normal cells and tumor cells. In contrast to glycoproteins isolated from biological sources, synthetic glycopeptides are obtained in pure form and exactly specified structures. The methods developed for the synthesis of glycopeptides with tumor-associated…

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.

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…
