glucopyranoside (28): To a solution of 27 (13 mg, 0.0259
mmol, 1 equiv) in dry THF (1.5 mL) 1M aqueous KOH
solution (0.5 mL) and MeOH (0.5 mL) was added. The mixture
was stirred at room temperature until no more starting material
was observable on TLC. The solution was then acidified to pH
3 and quick extracted with EtOAc (3 mL x 3) and the combined
organic layer dried with Na2SO4 and concentrated in vacuo.
The crude carboxylic acid was then dissolved in dry DMF, to
which L-alanyl-D-isoglutamine benzyl ester TFA salt was
added as a solution in DMF (12 mg, 0.0285 mmol, 1.1 equiv).
DIPEA (18.2 µL, 0.104 mmol, 4 equiv) and HBTU (12 mg,
0.0311 mmol, 1.2 equiv) were added in that sequence. The
reaction was stirred at room temperature for 20 hrs. The
mixture was extracted with EtOAc (5 mL x 3) and water. The
combined organic layer was washed with brine, dried with
Na2SO4 and concentrated in vacuo. The crude mixture was
purified by reverse phase chromatography (H2O:MeCN) to give
28 (15 mg, 74%). Data for 28: δH (500MHz, CDCl3) 1.34 (d,
3H, J 7.5 Hz), 1.41 (d, 3H, J 6.5 Hz), 2.02 (m, 1H), 2.21 (m,

N-glycolyl muramyl dipeptide (2): To a solution of 28 (10
mg) in MeOH (5 mL) and EtOAc (5 mL), was added small
amount of acetic acid and catalytic amount of Pd/C. The
mixture was stirred at room temperature under H2 atmosphere
for 24 hrs. The reaction mixture was filtered through Celite and
purified using reverse phase HPLC (H2O:MeOH) to give 2 as a
