A one-pot aqueous solution method for synthesis of S-glycoside derivatives has been developed. Firstly, unprotected sugars were converted into glycosyl Bunte salts from which thiolate sugars can be generated efficiently using Na2S. The subsequent addition reaction with vinyl compounds or organic halides has successfully been demonstrated, giving rise to the corresponding S-glycosides.

Auranofin, an FDA-approved arthritis drug, has recently been repurposed as a potential antimicrobial agent; it performed well against many Gram-positive bacteria, including multidrug resistant strains. It is, however, inactive toward Gram-negative bacteria, for which we are in dire need of new therapies. In this work, 40 auranofin analogues were synthesized by varying the structures of the thiol and phosphine ligands, and their activities were tested against ESKAPE pathogens. The study identified compounds that exhibited bacterial inhibition (MIC) and killing (MBC) activities up to 65 folds higher than that of auranofin, making them effective against Gram-negative pathogens. Both thiol and the phosphine structures influence the activities of the analogues. The trimethylphosphine and triethylphosphine ligands gave the highest activities against Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria, respectively. Our SAR study revealed that the thiol ligand is also very important, the structure of which can modulate the activities of the AuI complexes for both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. Moreover, these analogues had mammalian cell toxicities either similar to or lower than that of auranofin.

The sulfur-linked pentathiohexasaccharide 3(I),3(IV)-di-β-D- glucopyranosylthiogentiotetraose (12) has been prepared by a convergent approach involving the reaction of 1,2,4-tri-O-acetyl-6-deoxy-6-iodo-3-S- (2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-β-D-glucopyranosyl)-3-thio-β-D-glucopyranose (10) with the sodium salt of 2,3,4-tri-O-acetyl-6-S-[2,4-di-O-acetyl-3,6-di- S(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-β-D-glucopyranosyl)-3,6-dithio-β-D- glucopyranosyl]-1,6-dithio-β-D-glucopyranose (4). A further reaction, involving the sodium salt of the peracetylated β1-thio derivative of 12 with 1,2,3,4-tetra-O-acetyl-6-deoxy-6-iodo-β-D-glucopyranose (26), afforded the homologous sulfur-linked hexathioheptasaccharide 3(II),3(V)-di-β-D- glucopyranosylthiogentiopentaose (28). Related sulfur-linked positional isomers 3(II),3(IV)-di-D-β-glucopyranosylthiogentiotetraose (34) and 3(III),3(V)-di-β-D-glucopyranosylthiogentiopentaose (39) have been prepared using analogous synthetic strategies. Thus, S(N)2 displacement of the iodine atom in 10 by the sodium salt of 2,4-di-O-acetyl-3,6-di-S-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O- acetyl-β-D-glucopyranosyl)-1,3,6-trithio-β-D-glucopyranose afforded a tetrathiopentasaccharide, which resulted in the pentathiohexasaccharide 34 by a sequence of reactions involving the 1-thioglycose 32 in reaction with 26. The hexathioheptasaccharide 39 was obtained conveniently by the reaction of 26 with the acetylated 1-thio-6(I), 3(II), 6(II), 3(IV), 6(IV)-pentathio derivative 37, followed by deacylation. The four isomeric pentathiohexa- and hexathioheptasaccharides 12,34 and 28,39, respectively, were all found to be active in eliciting phytoalexin accumulation in soybean cotyledon tissue and in binding to a glucan-binding protein of soybean, although to a lesser extent than the corresponding O-oligosaccharides, the alternate thiohexa- and thioheptasaccharides 12,28 being more active as compared to the geminally branched isomers 34,39.
