We describe here the synthesis and the biological activity of a 'C-pentasaccharide', a new analogue of the antithrombin III (AT III) binding region of heparin containing a methylene bridge in place of an interglycosidic oxygen atom. The affinity for AT III and the anti-factor Xa activity of this compound have been compared with that of the corresponding selected 'O-pentasaccharide'. Such a structural modification slightly decreased the affinity of this compound for AT III as well as its anti-factor Xa activity (880±40 anti-Xa units versus 1180±30 anti-Xa units for the C-pentasaccharide and the O-pentasaccharide, respectively). This compound therefore represents the first example of a new class of anti-factor Xa pentasaccharides containing a C-interglycosidic bond. Copyright (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd.

A mixed synthetic C, O-pentasaccharide 17 has been synthesized and shown to display an anti-factor Xa activity similar to that of the corresponding O-pentasaccharide 18. 17 represents the first example of a synthetic C-oligosaccharidic mimetic eliciting a significant biological response.
