The synthesis of a new rigid spacer based on carbohydrate-triazole repeating units and their incorporation into divalent systems is described. Inhibition studies showed that a well-matched system with a rigid spacer with flexible ends leads to the most potent inhibition of Pseudomonas aeruginosa lectin LecA.

We report the synthesis of a series of bivalent 1,2,3-triazole linked galactopyranosides as potential inhibitors of cholera toxin (CT). The inhibitory activity of the bivalent series was examined (ELISA) and the series showed low inhibitory activity (millimolar IC50s). Conversely, the monomeric galactotriazole analogues were strong inhibitors of cholera toxin (IC 50 = 71-75 μM). The Royal Society of Chemistry 2011.

C-linked 3- and 4-(glycosylacetylene)-Fmoc-phenylalanines were synthesized as rigid building blocks for synthesis of libraries of neoglycopeptide templates. Perbenzylated 1,5-galactonolactone, 1,5- gluconolactone, and 1,5-mannonolactone were reacted with cerium TMS-acetylide and the products reduced to the C-glycosylacetylene-TMS derivatives. The gluco and galacto configurations yielded exclusively the β-C-glycoside, whereas the mannonolactone gave a mixture of α-C- and β-C-anomer. The products were subjected to acetolysis and TMS cleavage. The resulting peracetylated glycosylacetylenes were cross-coupled with the (R,S)-N(α)- acetyl-3- and 4-iodophenylalanine O-methyl esters by Pd(0) catalysis in piperidine to give the eight possible C-linked glycosyl amino acid building blocks 33-40 as diastereomeric pairs. These were O-deacetylated. As an example of further conversion into neoglycopeptide templates the N-acetyl group of the 4-linked galacto-diastereomeric pair 43 was hydrolyzed selectively by acylase 1 and separated from the (R)stereoisomer. The product was converted to 4-(β-C-galactosylacetylene)(N(α)-Fmoc-)-L-phenylalanine (52) by reaction with Fmoc-OSu. Acid hydrolysis of galactosyl acetylene phenyl alanine 43 at elevated temperature afforded the conversion of the acetylene to the 1'-oxo derivative which was also N(α)-Fmoc protected. The building blocks were used in the glycopeptide synthesis of three neoglycopeptide templates 54, 55, and 56 known to bind to murine MHC class II E(k) and to present the glycan for interaction with the T-cell receptor. This template has previously been employed to elicit a carbohydrate specific T- cell response.
