Fully acetylated deoxyfluorinated hexosamine analogues and non-fluorinated 3,4,6-tri-O-acylated N-acetyl-hexosamine hemiacetals have previously been shown to display moderate anti-proliferative activity. We prepared a set of deoxyfluorinated GlcNAc and GalNAc hemiacetals that comprised both features: O-acylation at the non-anomeric positions with an acetyl, propionyl and butanoyl group, and deoxyfluorination at selected positions. Determination of the in vitro cytotoxicity towards the MDA-MB-231 breast cancer and HEK-293 cell lines showed that deoxyfluorination enhanced cytotoxicity in most analogues. Increasing the ester alkyl chain length had a variable effect on the cytotoxicity of fluoro analogues, which contrasted with non-fluorinated hemiacetals where butanoyl derivatives had always higher cytotoxicity than acetates. Reaction with 2-phenylethanethiol indicated that the recently described S-glyco-modification is an unlikely cause of cytotoxicity.

The Carbohydrate Esterase family 4 contains virulence factors which modify peptidoglycan and biofilm-related exopolysaccharides. Despite the importance of this family of enzymes, a potent mechanism-based inhibition strategy has yet to emerge. Based on the postulated tridentate binding mode of the tetrahedral de-N-acetylation intermediate, GlcNAc derivatives bearing metal chelating groups at the 2 and 3 positions were synthesized. These scaffolds include 2-C phosphonate, 2-C sulfonamide, 2-thionoacetamide warheads as well as derivatives bearing thiol, amine and azide substitutions at the 3-position. The inhibitors were assayed against a representative peptidoglycan deacetylase, Pgda from Streptococcus pneumonia, and a representative biofilm-related exopolysaccharide deacetylase, PgaB from Escherichia coli. Of the inhibitors evaluated, the 3-thio derivatives showed weak to moderate inhibition of Pgda. The strongest inhibitor was benzyl 2,3-dideoxy-2-thionoacetamide-3-thio-β-D-glucoside, whose inhibitory potency showed an unexpected dependence on metal concentration and was found to have a partial mixed inhibition mode (Ki = 2.9 ± 0.6 μM).
Syntheses of N-aryl-protected glucosamines and their stereoselectivity in chemical glycosylations

N-Aryl-protecting groups were introduced in glucosamines to achieve β-selective glycosylation. Various N-aryl aminosugars were synthesized via Buchwald–Hartwig reaction. Glycosylation using glycosyl trichloroacetimidates of N-aryl aminosugars smoothly proceeded in the presence of trimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate. Use of a glycosyl donor comprising an electron-donating 2,4-dimethoxyphenyl (DMP) group led to the glycosylation proceeding with high β selectivity. This stereoselectivity seemed to be derived from the formation of an aziridine intermediate. The DMP-protecting group can be removed immediately by using ammonium hexanitratocerate (IV).

Esterification of a wide range of partially protected carbohydrate derivatives was achieved using acetic anhydride and a catalytic amount of ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN). Compatibility with the commonly used protecting groups was demonstrated, with the es

Lipo-chitotetrasaccharide analogues where one central GlcNAc residue was replaced by a triazole unit have been synthesized from a derivative obtained by chitin depolymerization and a functionalized N-acetyl-glucosamine via the copper-catalyzed azide-alkyn

Unnatural uridine diphosphate (UDP)-sugar donors, UDP-4-deoxy-4-fluoro-N-acetylglucosamine (4FGlcNAc) and UDP-4-deoxy-4-fluoro-N-acetylgalactosamine (4FGalNAc), were prepared using both chemical and chemoenzymatic syntheses relying on N-acetylglucosamine-

Bi(NO3)3, a low-cost, mild, and environmentally green catalyst, has been successfully utilized for Fischer glycosylation for the synthesis of alkyl/aryl glycopyranosides by reacting unprotected sugars, namely, D-glucose, L-rhamnose, D-galactose, D-arabinose, and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine with various alcohols in good to excellent yields. The glycosides were formed with high α-selectivity. Further, an expedient separation of α- and β-glycosides using silver nitrate-impregnated silica gel flash liquid chromatography has been developed.

Ali, Stacy P.,Jalsa, Nigel Kevin
, p. 185 - 196 (2014/06/09)
The order of reactivity of OH and NH groups of glucosamine hydrochloride (GlcNH2HCl) and N-acetyl glucosamine (GlcNAc) toward benzylation with NaH/BnBr in DMF was investigated. For GlcNH2.HCl, benzyl groups were introduced in the order of N-Bn > N-Bn2 > 1-O-Bn > 6-O-Bn > 4-O-Bn > 3-O-Bn; for GlcNAc, benzyl groups were introduced in the order of 1-O-Bn > 6-O-Bn > 4-O-Bn > 3-O-Bn > N-Bn. A range of partially benzylated 2-N,N′-dibenzyl glucopyranosides and GlcNAc derivatives were obtained in a single step. Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.

The peptidoglycan glycosyltransferases (GTs) are essential enzymes that catalyze the polymerization of glycan chains of the bacterial cell wall from lipid II and thus constitute a validated antibacterial target. Their enzymatic cavity is composed of a donor site for the growing glycan chain (where the inhibitor moenomycin binds) and an acceptor site for lipid II substrate. In order to find lead inhibitors able to fill this large active site, we have synthesized a series of substrate analogues of lipid I and lipid II with variations in the lipid, the pyrophosphate, and the peptide moieties and evaluated their biological effect on the GT activity of E. coli PBP1b and their antibacterial potential. We found several compounds able to inhibit the GT activity in vitro and cause growth defect in Bacillus subtilis. The more active was C16-phosphoglycerate-MurNAc-(l-Ala-d-Glu)-GlcNAc, which also showed antibacterial activity. These molecules are promising leads for the design of new antibacterial GT inhibitors.
