The CS-35 antibody is widely used in the characterization of glycans containing D-arabinofuranose residues, in particular polysaccharides present in the mycobacterial cell wall. A detailed understanding of the combining site of this antibody and the measu

- On the use of 3,5-O-benzylidene and 3,5-O-(Di-tert-butylsilylene)-2-O- benzylarabinothiofuranosides and their sulfoxides as glycosyl donors for the synthesis of β-arabinofuranosides: Importance of the activation method
-
A 2-O-benzyl-3,5-O-benzylidene-α-D-thioarabinofuranoside was obtained by reaction of the corresponding diol with α,α-dibromotoluene under basic conditions. On activation with 1-benzenesulfinyl piperidine, or diphenyl sulfoxide, and trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride in dichloromethane at -55 °C, reaction with glycosyl acceptors affords anomeric mixtures with little or no selectivity. The analogous 2-O-benzyl-3,5-O-(di-tert-butylsilylene)- α-D-thioarabinofuranoside also showed no significant selectivity under the 1-benzenesulfinyl piperidine or diphenyl sulfoxide conditions. With N-iodosuccinimide and silver trifluoromethanesulfonate the silylene acetal showed moderate to high β-selectivity, independent of the configuration of the starting thioglycoside. High β-selectivity was also obtained with a 2-O-benzyl-3,5-O-(di-tert-butylsilylene)-α-arabinofuranosyl sulfoxide donor on activation with trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride. The high β-selectivities obtained by the N-iodosuccinimide/silver trifluoromethanesulfonate and sulfoxide methods are consistent with a common intermediate, most likely to be the oxacarbenium ion. The poor selectivity observed on activation of the thioglycosides with the 1-benzenesulfinyl piperidine, or diphenyl sulfoxide, and trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride methods appears to be the result of the formation of a complex mixture of glycosyl donors, as determined by low-temperature NMR work.

- Stereoselective synthesis of a fragment of mycobacterial arabinan
-
Strategies for the stereoselective synthesis of mycobacterial arabinan were explored. Arabinofuranosyl donors with various protective groups were screened in terms of suitability for β-(1,2-cis)-selective glycosylation. The protective group was found to affect the stereoselectivity of arabinofuranosylation. β-Selectivity was drastically enhanced by using donors protected with 3,5-TIDPS, possibly due to conformational constraints on the furanose ring. Synthesis of heptaarabinofuranoside was then performed to demonstrate the practicality of this methodology.
