supporting information, p. 2224 - 2227 (2022/02/17)
A site-specific deprotonation followed by alkylations and acylations of sugar hemiacetals to the corresponding alkyl glycosides and acylated sugars in aqueous solutions is disclosed herein. Pyridoneimine as a new base is developed to mediate the deprotonation of readily available sugar hemiacetals and further reactions with alkylation and acylation agents.

Paragraph 0053; 0054; 0055, (2020/02/19)
The invention discloses a preparation method of fondaparinux sodium disaccharide intermediate. 1-O-substituent sulfonyl-2,3-bis-O-benzyl-4,6-O-benzylidene-beta-D-glucopyranose directly reacts with 1,6-dehydrated-2-deoxy-2-azido-3-O-acetyl-beta-D-glucopyranose to prepare the fondaparinux sodium disaccharide intermediate as shown in a formula I; and meanwhile, the fondaparinux sodium intermediate asshown in the formula I can be used as a raw material to synthesize fondaparinux sodium intermediate as shown in a formula IV. The preparation method is simple and small in steps, the yield is high, the atomic utilization rate is high, the three wastes are small, and the preparation method is suitable for industrial large-scale production. Please see the description for the formula.
Acid-Assisted Direct Olefin Metathesis of Unprotected Carbohydrates in Water

The ability to use unprotected carbohydrates in olefin metathesis reactions in aqueous media is demonstrated. By using water-soluble, amine-functionalized Hoveyda–Grubbs catalysts under mildly acidic aqueous conditions, the self-metathesis of unprotected alkene-functionalized α-d-manno- and α-d-galactopyranosides could be achieved through minimization of nonproductive chelation and isomerization. Cross-metathesis with allyl alcohol could also be achieved with reasonable selectivity. The presence of small quantities (2.5 vol %) of acetic acid increased the formation of the self-metathesis product while significantly reducing the alkene isomerization process. The catalytic activity was furthermore retained in the presence of large amounts (0.01 mm) of protein, underlining the potential of this carbon–carbon bond-forming reaction under biological conditions. These results demonstrate the potential of directly using unprotected carbohydrate structures in olefin metathesis reactions under mild conditions compatible with biological systems, and thereby enabling their use in, for example, drug discovery and protein derivatization.
Synthesis, kinetics and inhibition of Escherichia coli Heptosyltransferase I by monosaccharide analogues of Lipid A

Gram-negative bacteria comprise the majority of microbes that cause infections that are resistant to pre-existing antibiotics. The complex cell wall architecture contributes to their ability to form biofilms, which are often implicated in hospital-acquired infections. Biofilms promote antibiotic resistance by enabling the bacteria to survive hostile environments such as UV radiation, pH shifts, and antibiotics. The outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria contains lipopolysaccharide (LPS), which plays a role in adhesion to surfaces and formation of biofilms. The main focus of this work was the synthesis of a library of glycolipids designed to be simplified analogues of the Lipid A, the membrane embedded portion component of LPS, to be tested as substrates or inhibitors of Heptosyltransferase I (HepI or WaaC, a glycosyltransferase enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of LPS). Fourteen analogues were synthesized successfully and characterized. While these compounds were designed to function as nucleophilic substrates of HepI, they all demonstrated mild inhibition of HepI. Kinetic characterization of inhibition mechanism identified that the compounds exhibited uncompetitive and mixed inhibition of HepI. Since both uncompetitive and mixed inhibition result in the formation of an Enzyme-Substrate-inhibitor complex, molecular docking studies (using AutoDock Vina) were performed, to identify potential allosteric binding site for these compounds. The inhibitors were shown to bind to a pocket formed after undergoing a conformational change from an open to a closed active site state. Inhibition of HepI via an allosteric site suggest that disruption of protein dynamics might be a viable mechanism for the inhibition of HepI and potentially other enzymes of the GT-B structural class.
Glycosyl Aldehydes: New Scaffolds for the Synthesis of Neoglycoconjugates via Bioorthogonal Oxime Bond Formation
Reina, José J.,Rioboo, Alicia,Montenegro, Javier
, p. 831 - 845 (2018/01/11)
The straightforward preparation of glycosyl neoconjugates by oxime (or hydrazone) bond formation represents a key bioorthogonal tool in chemical biology. However, when this strategy is employed by reacting the reducing end of the glycan moiety, the configuration and the stereochemical information is lost due to partial (or complete) opening of the glycan cyclic hemiacetal and the formation of the corresponding opened tautomers. We have completed the synthesis of a library of glycosyl aldehydes to be used as scaffold for the synthesis of neoglycoconjugates via oxime bond formation. These glycosyl aldehydes constitute a simple and accessible alternative to avoid loss of chiral information when conjugating, by oxime (or hydrazone) bonds, the aldehyde functionality present at the reducing end of natural carbohydrates.
Chemical Synthesis of Modified Hyaluronic Acid Disaccharides
Mende, Marco,Nieger, Martin,Br?se, Stefan
, p. 12283 - 12296 (2017/09/14)
Herein we report a chemical synthesis towards new modified hyaluronic acid oligomers by using only commercially available d-glucose and d-glucosamine hydrochloride. The various protected hyaluronic acid disaccharides were synthesized bearing new functional groups at C-6 of the β-d-glucuronic acid moiety with a view to structure-related biological activity tests. The orthogonal protecting group pattern allows ready access to the corresponding higher oligomers. Also, 1H NMR studies of the new derivatives demonstrated the effect of the various functional groups on the intramolecular electronic environment.
