Anomeric selectivity in galloylation of d-glucose and d-mannose with carboxylic acid was explored under steglich conditions. Base catalyst 4-dimethylaminopyridine favored the formation of alpha-anomers, while adding an acid and carbodiimide favored the formation of beta-anomers. Steric hindrance between α,β-unsaturated acid and C-2 OH stereochemistry (adjacent carbon to anomeric) influenced anomeric selectivity for both d-glucose and d-mannose. The influenza A virus inhibition activities of the synthesized compounds were evaluated in Madin-Darby canine kidney cell line using the cytopathic effect inhibition assay. All the synthetic methoxylated analogues showed more considerable activity against influenza A virus than their corresponding acids, which indicated the sugar core as key functionality for anti-viral activity. The activities of trimethoxy-cinnamic acid Pentagalloylglucose analogues, 3α, 3β, 4α, and 4β (IC50, 109.1 μM, 134.4 μM, 119.5 μM, 111.1 μM, respectively) were better than those of trimethoxy-benzoic acid Pentagalloylglucose analogues, 1-αβ and 2α, 2β (IC50, 209.8 μM, 132.9 μM, 161.2 μM, respectively), which suggested that the double bond in cinnamic acid Pentagalloylglucose analogues makes the major contribution for influenza A virus inhibitory activity. Notably, several anomeric mixtures showed better activities than pure alpha or beta anomer and were almost two times more effective than Ribavirin, a clinically used anti-viral drug.

By manipulating the solvent and using bulky TMEDA as a base, good yields and improved anomeric selectivities were obtained for the aroylation of D-glucose over similar esterifications using pyridine. The reaction has been extended to mannose and the β-ano

Bioassay-guided fractionation of the MeOH extract of the whole plant of Geum japonicum led to the isolation of seven known tannins. They were identified by spectroscopic methods as penta-O-galloyl-β-glucoside (1); pedunculagin (2), 2,3-(S)-hexahydroxydiphenoyl-D-glucose (3), tellimagrandin II (4), 2,6-di-O-galloyl-D-glucose (5), casuariin (6), and 5- desgalloylstachyurin (7). Compounds 1, 2, 4, 6, and 7 showed potent anticoagulant activity by significantly prolonging the clotting of rabbit plasma. The inhibitory effect of 2 was competitively directed against thrombin. Its IC50 values for inhibition of the enzymatic activity of thrombin on synthetic substrate and fibrinogen were 0.18 and 0.15 μM, respectively. On the other hand, compounds 1, 4, 6, and 7 are mixed noncompetitive inhibitors of thrombin. Their IC50 values for inhibition of fibrinogen hydrolysis were twofold to sevenfold lower than those for the inhibition of synthetic substrate hydrolysis. Factor Xa was competitively inhibited by compounds 1, 2, 4, 6, and 7. The phenolic hydroxyl groups of the active tannins appear to play an important role in their inhibitory effect on the enzymes.
