- Concise Synthesis of 1-Thioalkyl Glycoside Donors by Reaction of Per-O-acetylated Sugars with Sodium Alkanethiolates under Solvent-Free Conditions
-
A relatively green method for synthesizing 1-thioalkyl glycosides has been developed, where sodium alkanethiolates were used to react with per-O-acetylated sugars instead of odorous alkyl mercaptans in the presence of BF3·Et2O without the use of solvents under mild conditions. Furthermore, we found that 1,2-trans-β-thioglycosides can be converted into corresponding 1,2-cis-α-thioglycosides in the presence of trifluoromethanesulfonic acid in nonpolar solvents under mild conditions. This provides a simple and efficient new approach for synthesizing challenging 1,2-cis-α-thioglycosides.

- A versatile approach to the synthesis of glycans containing mannuronic acid residues
-
Reported herein is a new method for a highly effective synthesis of β-glycosides from mannuronic acid donors equipped with the 3-O-picoloyl group. The stereocontrol of glycosylations was achieved by means of the H-bond-mediated aglycone delivery (HAD). The method was utilized for the synthesis of a tetrasaccharide linkedviaβ-(1 → 3)-mannuronic linkages. We have also investigated 3,6-lactonized glycosyl donors that provided moderate to high β-manno stereoselectivity in glycosylations. A method to achieve complete α-manno stereoselectivity with mannuronic acid donors equipped with 3-O-benzoyl group is also reported.

- Developing a library of mannose-based mono-and disaccharides: A general chemoenzymatic approach to monohydroxylated building blocks
-
Regioselective deprotection of acetylated mannose-based mono-and disaccharides differently functionalized in anomeric position was achieved by enzymatic hydrolysis. Candida rugosa lipase (CRL) and Bacillus pumilus acetyl xylan esterase (AXE) were immobilized on octyl-Sepharose and glyoxyl-agarose, respectively. The regioselectivity of the biocatalysts was affected by the sugar structure and functionalization in anomeric position. Generally, CRL was able to catalyze regioselective deprotection of acetylated monosaccharides in C6 position. When acetylated disaccharides were used as substrates, AXE exhibited a marked preference for the C2, or C6 position when C2 was involved in the glycosidic bond. By selecting the best enzyme for each substrate in terms of activity and regioselectivity, we prepared a small library of differently monohydroxylated building blocks that could be used as intermediates for the synthesis of mannosylated glycoconjugate vaccines targeting mannose receptors of antigen presenting cells.

- Chemical glucosylation of pyridoxine
-
The chemical synthesis of pyridoxine-5′-β-D-glucoside (5′-β-PNG) was investigated using various glucoside donors and promoters. Hereby, the combination of α4,3-O-isopropylidene pyridoxine, glucose vested with different leaving and protecting groups and the application of stoichiometric amounts of different promoters was examined with regards to the preparation of the twofold protected PNG. Best results were obtained with 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-D-glucopyranosyl fluoride and boron trifluoride etherate (2.0 eq.) as promoter at 0 °C (59%). The deprotection was accomplished stepwise with potassium/sodium hydroxide in acetonitrile/water followed by acid hydrolysis with formic acid resulting in the chemical synthesis of 5′-β-PNG.

- An Empirical Understanding of the Glycosylation Reaction
-
Reliable glycosylation reactions that allow for the stereo- and regioselective installation of glycosidic linkages are paramount to the chemical synthesis of glycan chains. The stereoselectivity of glycosylations is exceedingly difficult to control due to the reaction's high degree of sensitivity and its shifting, simultaneous mechanistic pathways that are controlled by variables of unknown degree of influence, dominance, or interdependency. An automated platform was devised to quickly, reproducibly, and systematically screen glycosylations and thereby address this fundamental problem. Thirteen variables were investigated in as isolated a manner as possible, to identify and quantify inherent preferences of electrophilic glycosylating agents (glycosyl donors) and nucleophiles (glycosyl acceptors). Ways to enhance, suppress, or even override these preferences using judicious environmental conditions were discovered. Glycosylations involving two specific partners can be tuned to produce either 11:1 selectivity of one stereoisomer or 9:1 of the other by merely changing the reaction conditions.

- Rapid Synthesis of l-Idosyl Glycosyl Donors from α-Thioglucosides for the Preparation of Heparin Disaccharides
-
A new methodology for the synthesis of the most challenging heparin building block has been developed. Orthogonally protected l-idosyl glycosyl donors were prepared by C5 epimerization of the corresponding thioglucosides using the hydroboration/oxidation method followed by a 4,6-acetal formation. The α-anomeric configuration was crucial, and the bulky C4 substituent was advantageous for the high l-ido diastereoselectivity. The 4,6-arylmethylene group proved to be a directing element in glycosylation, whereby stereoselective α-idosylation could be achieved by using idosyl donors without a C-2 participating group.

In the presence of a soft Lewis acid, glycosylation reaction proceeds at ambient temperature with good yields. It is further demonstrated that it is possible to orthogonally activate S-ethyl in the presence of S-phenyl donors, enabling the design of sequential glycosylation strategies.

- Synthesis and binding affinity analysis of α1-2- and α1-6-O/S-linked dimannosides for the elucidation of sulfur in glycosidic bonds using quartz crystal microbalance sensors
-
The role of sulfur in glycosidic bonds has been evaluated using quartz crystal microbalance methodology. Synthetic routes towards α1-2- and α1-6-linked dimannosides with S- or O-glycosidic bonds have been developed, and the recognition properties assessed in competition binding assays with the cognate lectin concanavalin A. Mannose-presenting QCM sensors were produced using photoinitiated, nitrene-mediated immobilization methods, and the subsequent binding study was performed in an automated flow-through instrumentation, and correlated with data from isothermal titration calorimetry. The recorded Kd-values corresponded well with reported binding affinities for the O-linked dimannosides with affinities for the α1-2-linked dimannosides in the lower micromolar range. The S-linked analogs showed slightly disparate effects, where the α1-6-linked analog showed weaker affinity than the O-linked dimannoside, as well as positive apparent cooperativity, whereas the α1-2-analog displayed very similar binding compared to the O-linked structure.

- A Sugar-Based Gelator for Marine Oil-Spill Recovery
-
Marine oil spills constitute an environmental disaster with severe adverse effects on the economy and ecosystem. Phase-selective organogelators (PSOGs), molecules that can congeal oil selectively from oil–water mixtures, have been proposed to be useful for oil-spill recovery. However, a major drawback lies in the mode of application of the PSOG to an oil spill spread over a large area. The proposed method of using carrier solvents is impractical for various reasons. Direct application of the PSOG as a solid, although it would be ideal, is unknown, presumably owing to poor dispersion of the solid through the oil. We have designed five cheap and easy-to-make glucose-derived PSOGs that disperse in the oil phase uniformly when applied as a fine powder. These gelators were shown to selectively congeal many oils, including crude oil, from oil–water mixtures to form stable gels, which is an essential property for efficient oil-spill recovery. We have demonstrated that these PSOGs can be applied aerially as a solid powder onto a mixture of crude oil and sea water and the congealed oil can then be scooped out. Our innovative mode of application and low cost of the PSOG offers a practical solution to oil-spill recovery.

- Chemoenzymatic Synthesis of a Library of Human Milk Oligosaccharides
-
Human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) are a family of diverse unconjugated glycans that exist in human milk as one of the major components. Characterization, quantification, and biofunctional studies of HMOs remain a great challenge due to their diversity and complexity. The accessibility of a homogeneous HMO library is essential to solve these issues which have beset academia for several decades. In this study, an efficient chemoenzymatic strategy, namely core synthesis/enzymatic extension (CSEE), for rapid production of diverse HMOs was reported. On the basis of 3 versatile building blocks, 3 core structures were chemically synthesized via consistent use of oligosaccharyl thioether and oligosaccharyl bromide as glycosylation donors in a convergent fragment coupling strategy. Each of these core structures was then extended to up to 11 HMOs by 4 robust glycosyltransferases. A library of 31 HMOs were chemoenzymatically synthesized and characterized by MS and NMR. CSEE indeed provides a practical approach to harvest structurally defined HMOs for various applications.

- Acyclic tethers mimicking subunits of polysaccharide ligands: Selectin antagonists

We report on the design and synthesis of molecules having E- and P-selectins blocking activity both in vitro and in vivo. The GlcNAc component of the selectin ligand sialyl LewisX was replaced by an acyclic tether that links two saccharide units. The minimization of intramolecular dipole-dipole interactions and the gauche effect would be at the origin of the conformational bias imposed by this acyclic tether. The stereoselective synthesis of these molecules, their biochemical and biological evaluations using surface plasmon resonance spectroscopy (SPR), and in vivo assays are described. Because the structure of our analogues differs from the most potent E-selectin antagonists reported, our acyclic analogues offer new opportunities for chemical diversity.

- Exploring glycosylation reactions under continuous-flow conditions

The industrial development of carbohydrate-based drugs is greatly thwarted by the typical challenges inherent in oligosaccharide synthesis. The practical advantages of continuous-flow synthesis in microreactors (high reproducibility, easy scalability, and fast reaction optimization) may offer an effective support to make carbohydrates more attractive targets for drug-discovery processes. Here we report a systematic exploration of the glycosylation reaction carried out under microfluidic conditions. Trichloroacetimidates and thioglycosides have been investigated as glycosyl donors, using both primary and secondary acceptors. Each microfluidic glycosylation has been compared with the corresponding batch reaction, in order to highlight advantages and drawbacks of microreactors technology. As a significant example of multistep continuous-flow synthesis, we also describe the preparation of a trisaccharide by means of two consecutive glycosylations performed in interconnected microreactors.

- Development of fully and partially protected fucosyl donors for oligosaccharide synthesis
-
The use of fully and partially tert-butyldimethylsilyl (TBDMS) protected fucose thioglycosides as glycosyl donors for oligosaccharide synthesis is described. Both the trisilyl- and disilyl-protected thioglycoside donors were prepared, and their reactivity under a range of activation conditions was investigated. Both silyl-protected donors were found to give good yields of the desired α products and the silyl protecting groups could be removed in the presence of unsaturated bonds. The disilyl-protected donor was found to behave as an efficient, partially protected glycosyl donor. The synthetic scope and limitations of these new donors is presented. Both donors were applied to the synthesis of a Lewis X trisaccharide displaying a propargyl group at the anomeric position. It was determined that the additional steric bulk of the TBDMS group inferred unusual reactivity on these fucosyl donors.

In the study, total efficiency of the synthesis was improved to produce a 78% overall yield in 13 steps from d-glucose. In the synthesis, formation of the 4,6-(S)-HHDP bridge including the 11-membered bislactone ring was a key step, in which intramolecular aryl-aryl coupling was adopted. The coupling was oxidatively induced by CuCl2-n-BuNH2 with perfect control of the axial chirality, and the reaction conditions of this coupling were optimized thoroughly to achieve the quantitative formation of the bridge.

- Systematic study on free radical hydrothiolation of unsaturated monosaccharide derivatives with exo- and endocyclic double bonds
-
Exo- and endocyclic double bonds of glycals and terminal double bonds of enoses were reacted with various thiols by irradiation with UV light in the presence of a cleavable photoinitiator. The photoinduced radical-mediated hydrothiolation reactions showed highly varying overall conversions depending not only on the substitution pattern and electron-density of the double bond but also on the nature and substitution pattern of the thiol partner. Out of the applied thiols thiophenol, producing the highly stabilized thiyl radical, exhibited the lowest reactivity toward each type of alkene. In most cases, the hydrothiolations took place with full regio- and stereoselectivities. Successful addition of 1,2:3,4-di-O-isopropylidene-6-thio-α-d-galactopyranose to a 2,3-unsaturated N-acetylneuraminic acid derivative, providing a (3 → 6)-S-linked pseudodisaccharide, demonstrated that the endocyclic double bond of Neu5Ac-2-ene, bearing an electron-withdrawing substituent, shows sufficient reactivity in the photoinduced thiol-ene coupling reaction.

- Synthesis of 6-sulfonatomethyl thioglycosides by nucleophilic substitution: Methods to prevent 1→6 anomeric group migration of thioglycoside 6-o-triflates
-
Introduction of a sulfonatomethyl moiety into the primary position of thioglycosides by nucleophilic displacement of the corresponding 6-O-triflate is described. The 1→6 migration of the anomeric group, which inevitably occurs through a bicyclic sulfonium ion intermediate, from conformationally flexible β-thioglycosides was prevented by using an α-thioglycoside or conformationally locked β-thioglycoside as the starting material. The thioglycoside 6-sulfonic acids showed excellent α-selectivity during synthesis of uronic acid containing heparinoid trisaccharides. Two routes to prepare C6-sulfonatomethyl thioglucosides by displacement of a 6-O-triflate moiety are reported. The undesired participation of the β-thio aglycon is prevented by changing the anomeric configuration or by locking the pyranose ring. The 6-sulfonatomethyl donors show excellent α-selectivities but significantly different reactivities during the synthesis of heparinoid trisaccharides. Copyright

- 'Naked' and hydrated conformers of the conserved core pentasaccharide of N-linked glycoproteins and its building blocks
-
N-glycosylation of eukaryotic proteins is widespread and vital to survival. The pentasaccharide unit -Man3GlcNAc2- lies at the protein-junction core of all oligosaccharides attached to asparagine side chains during this process. Although its absolute conservation implies an indispensable role, associated perhaps with its structure, its unbiased conformation and the potential modulating role of solvation are unknown; both have now been explored through a combination of synthesis, laser spectroscopy, and computation. The proximal -GlcNAc-GlcNAc- unit acts as a rigid rod, while the central, and unusual, -Man-β-1,4-GlcNAc- linkage is more flexible and is modulated by the distal Man-α-1,3- and Man-α-1,6- branching units. Solvation stiffens the 'rod' but leaves the distal residues flexible, through a β-Man pivot, ensuring anchored projection from the protein shell while allowing flexible interaction of the distal portion of N-glycosylation with bulk water and biomolecular assemblies.

- A new approach to explore the binding space of polysaccharide-based ligands: Selectin antagonists
-
The discovery of molecules that interfere with the binding of a ligand to a receptor remains a topic of great interest in medicinal chemistry. Herein, we report that a monosaccharide unit of a polysaccharide ligand can be replaced advantageously by a conformationally locked acyclic molecular entity. A cyclic component of the selectin ligand Sialyl Lewisx, GlcNAc, is replaced by an acyclic tether, tartaric esters, which link two saccharide units. The conformational bias of this acyclic tether originates from the minimization of intramolecular dipole-dipole interaction and the gauche effect. The evaluation of the binding of these derivatives to P-selectin was measured by surface plasmon resonance spectroscopy. The results obtained in our pilot study suggest that the discovery of tunable tethers could facilitate the exploration of the carbohydrate recognition domain of various receptors.

Reaction between 2-acetoxy-D-glucal and a range of thiols including amino acid, peptide, glycosyl thiols, and sugars with primary or secondary thiol functions gave S-linked α-glucoconjugates and S-disaccharides with full regio- and stereoselectivity. Addition of glycosyl thiols to a 2,3-unsaturated glycoside also proceeded with good selectivity and afforded a series of 3-deoxy-S-disaccharides.

- Synthesis and solution-phase conformation of the RG-I fragment of the plant polysaccharide pectin reveals a modification-modulated assembly mechanism
-
The syntheses of pure RG-I fragments of key plant matrix biomolecule pectin using a counterintuitive late-stage convergent cis-glycosylation has allowed detailed analyses of their solution-phase conformations, metal binding affinities, pKa values, self-assembly equilibria, and diffusional kinetics. These reveal a striking, right-handed 31-helix that provides an effective and repeating lateral display of putative liganding carboxylates. Moreover, these heteropolymeric structures allow units as short as tetrasaccharides to self-assemble through carbohydrate-carbohydrate interactions that are induced by the presence of Ca(II), a known dynamic trigger in planta. These self-assembly properties can be switched simply by the addition or removal of a single methyl group in this repeating unit through methyl (de)esterification, another known dynamic trigger in planta. Together, the combined effect of Ca(II) and methylation revealed here suggests a concerted molecular basis for these two major dynamic modifications in planta.

- Diastereoselective thioglycosylation of peracetylated glycosides catalyzed by in situ generated iron(III) iodide from elemental iodine and iron
-
A facile in situ preparation of Fe(III) iodide from cheap, abundant elemental iodine and iron metal served as an efficient catalyst for the thioglycosylation of peracetylated glycosides with various alkyl and aryl mercaptans. Due to neighboring participation, the anomerically pure β-thioglycosides were obtained in good to high yields with exclusive diastereocontrol.

- Involvement of the S-aglycon in the conformational preferences of thioglucosides
-
The conformational preferences of two series of alkyl β-d-thioglucopyranosides in solution were investigated by NMR and CD. The rotamer populations of the hydroxymethyl group were found to depend on the structural nature of the S-aglycon. The population of the gt rotamer increased and that of the gg rotamer decreased as the alkyl group attached to the S atom increased in size. These rotamer populations have a linear correlation with the Taft' steric parameters, the nS s(-) σC s(-) O* exo-anomeric interaction may express these rotational preferences. Comparative analysis of the hydroxymethyl populations between alkyl O- and S-glucosides revealed identical or slightly higher gt and smaller gg populations for the latter compounds.

- A generalized procedure for the one-pot preparation of glycosyl azides and thioglycosides directly from unprotected reducing sugars under phase-transfer reaction conditions
-
Per-O-acetylated glycosyl azides and thioglycosides were prepared in excellent yield directly from unprotected reducing sugars through in situ generation of per-O-acetylated glycosyl bromides by a generalized one-pot procedure under phase-transfer conditions. Stereoselective products were formed with complete inversion at the anomeric centers of the glycosyl bromides to provide a general high-yielding procedure for the preparation of 1,2-trans-glycosyl azides and thioglycosides.

- Highly diastereoselective thioglycosylation of functionalized peracetylated glycosides catalyzed by MoO2Cl2
-
Among 18 oxometallic species, MoO2Cl2 was found to be the most reactive in catalytic thioglycosylation of O-acetylated glycosides with functionalized thiols in CH2Cl2, leading cleanly to 1,2-trans-thioglycosides with exclusive diastereocontrol. The new catalytic protocol is applicable to a monoglycoside building block and β-(1→6)-S-linked-thiodisaccharide synthesis.
