Expeditious and stereocontrolled syntheses are reported of β-D-Glc pNAc-(1 → 4)-[β-D-Glc pA-(1 → 3)-β-D-Glc pNAc-(1 → 4)](n)-β-D-Glc pA-(l → OMe), where n = l, 2, and 3, which represent structural elements of the extracelIuIar polysaccharide hyaluronic acid. Condensation of 4,6-O-benzylidene-3-O-chloroacety l-2-deoxy-2-trichloroacetamido-α-D-glucopyranosyl trichloroacetimidate with methyl (4-methoxyphenyl 2,3-di-O-benzoyl-β-D-glucopyranosid)uronate gave the disaccharide derivative 9, which was demethoxyphenylated and imidoylated to afford the pivotal disaccharide trichloroacetimidate 7. Condensation of 7 with methanol followed by O-dechloroacetylation gave the acceptor 8. Coupling of 7 with 8 gave the tetrasaccharide derivative 4. O-Dechloroacetylation of 4 followed by condensation with imidate 7 afforded hexasaccharide 5, which was transformed into octasaccharide 6 by a similar two-step procedure. Subsequent O-dechloroacetylation, transformation of the N-trichloroacetyl groups into N-acetyl, debenzylidenation, and saponification of 4-6 afforded the tetra- (1), hexa- (2), and octa-saccharide (3) derivatives in high yields, as their sodium salts.
