Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) for cancer is on the rise worldwide due to recent developments of in-hospital neutron accelerators which are expected to revolutionize patient treatments. There is an urgent need for improved boron delivery agents, and herein we have focused on studying the biochemical foundations upon which a successful GLUT1-targeting strategy to BNCT could be based. By combining synthesis and molecular modeling with affinity and cytotoxicity studies, we unravel the mechanisms behind the considerable potential of appropriately designed glucoconjugates as boron delivery agents for BNCT. In addition to addressing the biochemical premises of the approach in detail, we report on a hit glucoconjugate which displays good cytocompatibility, aqueous solubility, high transporter affinity, and, crucially, an exceptional boron delivery capacity in the in vitro assessment thereby pointing toward the significant potential embedded in this approach.
From d-to l-Monosaccharide Derivatives via Photodecarboxylation-Alkylation

Photodecarboxylation-alkylation of conformationally locked monosaccharides leads to inversion of stereochemistry at C5. This allows the synthesis of l-sugars from their readily available d-counterparts. Via this strategy, methyl l-guloside was synthesized from methyl d-mannoside in 21% yield over six steps.

A highly stereoselective total synthesis of Amaryllidaceae alkaloid starting from α-D-galactopyranoside has been described. The salient features of this total synthesis are Ferrier carbocyclization reaction for the synthesis of ring A and Suzuki Miyaura c
Studies on the 6-homologation of β-D-idopyranosides

β-D-Idopyranosides are interesting sugars because of their unusual conformational flexibility in the pyranosyl ring, and also their β-1,2-cis-anomeric configuration. Here we report our studies of the regioselective opening of 4,6-O-benzylidene-protected β-D-idopyranosides under reducing conditions, and the subsequent 6-homologation via Swern oxidation and Wittig olefination to afford a 6,7-dideoxy-β-D-ido-hept-6-enopyranoside. This olefination product was found to adopt predominantly 1C4 conformation in solution by NMR experiments, which places the vinyl group at a more sterically hindered axial position and creates difficulty in subsequent hydroborations.
Study of Uridine 5′-Diphosphate (UDP)-Galactopyranose Mutase Using UDP-5-Fluorogalactopyranose as a Probe: Incubation Results and Mechanistic Implications

Uridine 5′-diphosphate-5-fluorogalactopyranose (UDP-5F-Galp, 7) was synthesized, and its effect on UDP-Galp mutase (UGM) was investigated. UGM facilitated the hydrolysis of 7 to yield UDP and 5-oxogalactose (24), but no 11 was detected. 19F NMR and trapping experiments demonstrated that the reaction involves the initial formation of a substrate-cofactor adduct followed by decomposition of the resulting C5 gem-fluorohydrin to generate a 5-oxo intermediate (10). The results support the current mechanistic proposal for UGM and suggest new directions for designing mechanism-based inhibitors.
Stable analogues of nojirimycin-synthesis and biological evaluation of nojiristegine and manno-nojiristegine

Two novel iminosugars called nojiristegines, being structural hybrids between nor-tropane alkaloid calystegine and nojirimycins, have been synthesised and found to be stable molecules despite the presence of a hemiaminal functionality. The synthesised iminosugars were evaluated against a panel of glycosidases and the best inhibition (IC50), found against α-glucosidases, was in the micromolar region. The compounds were also evaluated as potential antibiotics but no useful level of activity was observed.
Carbohydrate based hyper-crosslinked organic polymers with -OH functional groups for CO2 separation

Recently, microporous organic polymers, especially those hyper-crosslinked from functionalized aromatic monomers, have been shown to be effective for CO2 capture and storage with considerable capacity and selectivity. Herein, a class of novel m
In(III) triflate-catalyzed detritylation and glycosylation by solvent-free ball milling
Kumar, Vajinder,Yadav, Narender,Kartha, K.P. Ravindranathan
, p. 18 - 26 (2014/10/16)
A highly efficient In(III) triflate-assisted method for the detritylation of O-trityl derivatives of carbohydrates, phenols, and alcohols using solvent-free mechanochemical method is described. In the case of carbohydrates, further reaction in the presence of an acceptor sugar leads to highly efficient glycosylation in the same pot resulting in the formation of the desired glycoside-product in very high yields. The method was applied successfully to the synthesis of a combinatorial library of galactose-based (1,6)-linked cyclohexa-, hepta-, and octasaccharides on gram scale.

In the human cell cycle, the Myt1 kinase is a crucial regulator of the G2/M transition. Because this membrane-associated kinase is hard to obtain and assay, there is a distinct lack of data so far. Here we report the derivatization of a glycoglycerolipid which was shown previously to be active in a Myt1 activity assay. These compounds were tested in a binding assay together with a set of common kinase inhibitors against a full-length Myt1 expressed in a human cell line. Dasatinib exhibited nanomolar affinity whereas broad coverage inhibitors such as sunitinib and staurosporine derivatives did not show any effect. We also carried out docking studies for the most potent compounds allowing further insights into the inhibitor interaction of this kinase. The glycoglycerolipids showed no significant effects in the binding assay, endorsing the idea of a mechanism of action distant from the active site.
Sulfonylcarbamate as a versatile and unique hydroxy-protecting group: A protecting group stable under severe conditions and labile under mild conditions
Manabe, Shino,Yamaguchi, Masanori,Ito, Yukishige

The sulfonylcarbamate group is a unique hydroxyl protecting group. In contrast to typical acyl protecting groups, the sulfonylcarbamate group is stable under harsh basic conditions, while showing labile behavior under mild basic conditions. Its compatibility with other hydroxyl protecting groups and application to carbohydrate chemistry is demonstrated.
