N-Fluoren-9-ylmethoxycarbonyl-protected sugar amino acids derived from α-O-methoxy- and 2,3-dehydroneuraminic acids have been prepared. Incorporation of these monomer units into solid-phase synthesis led to the efficient synthesis of two series of oligomers varying from one to eight units in length. The (1-5)-linked amides of 2,3-dehydroneuraminic acid were further subjected to hydrogenation giving a third series of oligomers with a β-hydrido substituent at the anomeric carbon.
Sialated diazeniumdiolate: A new sialidase-activated nitric oxide donor

(Chemical Equation Presented) A new sialated diazeniumdiolate has been synthesized, and the glycosylation product was exclusively an α anomer. This new nitric oxide donor exhibited significantly improved stability as compared to its parent diazeniumdiolate salts, and it could be efficiently hydrolyzed by neuraminidase to release nitric oxide with a Km of 0.14 mM. The sialic acid-NO conjugate would be a valuable prodrug that targets NO to influenza viruses.

Previous studies demonstrated that reducing the GM3 content in myoblasts increased the cell resistance to hypoxic stress, suggesting that a pharmacological inhibition of the GM3 synthesis could be instrumental for the development of new treatments for ischemic diseases. Herein, the synthesis of several dephosphonated CMP-Neu5Ac congeners and their anti-GM3-synthase activity is reported. Biological activity testes revealed that some inhibitors almost completely blocked the GM3-synthase activity in vitro and reduced the GM3 content in living embryonic kidney 293A cells, eventually activating the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling cascade.

Although tremendous efforts have been made for the efficient preparation of sialosides, controlling the stereochemical outcome of sialylation reaction still remains one of the most challenging tasks due to the unique chemical structure of sialic acid. We developed a new strategy to statistically analyze the stereoselectivity of sialylation reactions on six types of p-tolyl thiosialosides in NIS/TfOH system using Relative Reactivity Value (RRV) as the indicator. Analysis of the reaction mechanism showed the formation of the relatively stable glycosyl bromide and glycosyl chloride intermediates from halide- and triflate-containing promotors in the absence of an acceptor. We found that the α/β-stereoselectivity, yields, and intermediate changes were associated with their donor reactivity. These findings enable to tailor the most suitable building blocks for stereo-controlled sialylation reactions.
