The monosaccharide N-acetyl-d-glucosamine (GlcNAc) is an abundant building block in naturally occurring oligosaccharides, but its incorporation by chemical glycosylation is challenging since direct reactions are low yielding. This issue, generally agreed upon to be caused by an intermediate 1,2-oxazoline, is often bypassed by introducing extra synthetic steps to avoid the presence of the NHAc functional group during glycosylation. The present paper describes new fundamental mechanistic insights into the inherent challenges of performing direct glycosylation with GlcNAc. These results show that controlling the balance of oxazoline formation and glycosylation is key to achieving acceptable chemical yields. By applying this line of reasoning to direct glycosylation with a traditional thioglycoside donor of GlcNAc, which otherwise affords poor glycosylation yields, one may obtain useful glycosylation results.

This paper describes the synthetic approach to an aromatic a-glycoside as a mimic of neamine, which is a common core structure of some aminoglycoside antibiotics. We achieved the synthesis of the protected precursor of the neamine mimic, 4-(2,6-diamino-2,

The stereoselective formation of the α-GalNAc-Ser linkage via the ring opening of aziridine-2-carboxamides with pyranose C1-O-nucleophiles is described. The process is tolerant to the native C2-NHAc group, can be modulated to provide either the α- or β-glycoside through judicious choice of solvent and metal counterion, and is amenable to other classes of O-glycosyl-Ser constructs such as the β-GlcNAc-Ser and α-Man-Ser linkages. This coupling reaction also led to the development of the o-allylbenzyl (ABn) moiety as a new C-terminus carboxyl protective group, which allows for the use of novel methods for N- and C-terminus extension of amino acids following carbohydrate conjugation.
