8-Hydroxyquinoline scaffold is a privileged structure used in designing a new active agents with therapeutic potential. Its connections with the sugar unit is formed to improve the pharmacokinetic properties. The broad spectrum of activity of quinoline derivatives, especially glycoconjugates, is often associated with the ability to chelate metal ions or with the ability to intercalate into DNA. Simple and effective methods of synthesis glycoconjugates of 8-hydroxyquinoline and 8-hydroxyquinaldine derivatives, containing an O-glycosidic bond or a 1,2,3-triazole linker in their structure, have been developed. The obtained glycoconjugates were tested for their ability to inhibit β-1,4-Galactosyltransferase, as well as inhibit cancer cell proliferation. It was found that used glycoconjugation strategy influenced both improvement of activity and improvement of the bioavailability of 8-HQ derivatives. Their activity depends on type of attached sugar, presence of protecting groups in sugar moiety and presence of a linker between sugar and quinolone aglycone.
