Improvement of the versatility of an arabinofuranosidase against galactofuranose for the synthesis of galactofuranoconjugates

Galactofuranoconjugates are rare compounds with interesting biological properties. Their syntheses by traditional approaches are however tedious. Glycosidases are nowadays often used to simplify such syntheses but the use of galactofuranosidase has not be

A general and diastereoselective synthesis of 1,2-cis-hexofuranosides from 1,2-trans-thiofuranosyl donors

The general formation of 1,2-trans-thioglycofuranosides derived from D- galactose, D-glucose and D-mannose was readily accomplished starting from the corresponding alkyl glycofuranosides via per-O-acetyl-hexofuranoses as key synthons. Glycosidation of ethyl or phenyl perbenzylated 1,2-trans- thiofuranosides afforded disaccharides containing a nonreducing 1,2-cis- hexofuranosyl unit, i.e. α-D-galactosyl, α-D-glucosyl or β-D-mannosyl, with interesting diastereoselectivities. Activation of the thiofuranosyl donors was performed by N-iodosuccinimide and a catalytic amount of tin(II) trifluoromethanesulfonate.
