Some bacteria present a variation in their peptidoglycan structure that is the absence of the N-acetyl substituent in the glucosamine residue. Very recently, this structural modification was demonstrated to be critical for host innate immune evasion in Listeria monocytogenes. To shed light on the molecular details of the evasion mechanism, the synthesis of some N-deacetylated peptidoglycan fragments is needed. En route to this goal a high-yielding synthesis of a GlcN-MurNAc disaccharide building block has been accomplished. A careful study of the optimal protecting groups and reaction conditions was done to have a complete β-stereoselectivity in glycosylation as well as to ensure a high versatility to the disaccharide building block.

Compound capable of binding to gamma-interferon (γ-IFN), chosen from the molecules corresponding to formula (I) below: in which X is a divalent spacer group that is sufficiently long to allow the two oligosaccharide fragments A and B to each bind to one of the peptide sequences 125 to 143 of the C-terminal ends of a γ-interferon (γ-IFN) homodimer, n represents an integer from 0 to 10, and for example equal to 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5, and each R independently represents a hydrogen atom, an SO3? group or a phosphate group, on the condition that no SO3? group is in the 3-position of the glucosamine units of compound (I). The invention also relates to the process for preparing these compounds, to the complexes formed by these compounds and gamma-interferon, and to the medicaments comprising these compounds or complexes.

New, multigram routes to suitably protected L-iduronyl monosaccharide donors 4 and 5 and 2-azidoglucose acceptors 6 and 7 are described. The L-iduronyl and D-glucuronyl disaccharides 1-3 were then prepared from these compounds, by means of efficient and regioselective protective group manipulations. These disaccharides form the basis of a combinatorial approach toward the synthesis of heparan sulfate fragments representative of the heterogeneous regions of this polysaccharide.
