Phase transfer catalyzed reaction was used for the high yielding synthesis of aryl 1-thio-β-d-galacto- and lacto-pyranosides carrying a panel of substituents on the phenyl groups. Best galectin-1 inhibitors were simple p-nitrophenyl thiogalactoside 5a for

The rates of hydrolysis of substituted phenyl α- and β-D-mannopyranosides were measured in acidic and alkaline solutions.In 0.11 N hydrochloric acid solution, the α-mannosides were hydrolyzed faster than the corresponding β-anomers.The rates of hydrolysis for the α-mannosides were unaffected by substitution in the phenyl group (Hammett reaction constant ρ=-0.07+/-0.065 (S.D.)), and those for the β-mannosides were slightly enhanced by the introduction of electron-releasing substituents (ρ=-0.25+/-0.082).In sodium hydroxide solution, the α-mannosides liberated their aglycones, phenols, much faster than the corresponding β-anomers and the rates were enhanced by the introduction of electron-withdrawing substituents (ρ=+2.7+/-0.14 for the α-, +3.1+/-0.46 for the β-mannosides, each in 3.93 N NaOH).Phenyl α-mannoside was hydrolyzed much faster than phenyl β-glucoside, though both have trans-1,2 configuration, indicating the importance of a 1,2-diaxial orientation for the reaction.

The action of p-nitrophenol penta-O-acetyl-β-D-galactopyranose in dichloromethane, in the presence of stannic tetrachloride gave p-nitrophenyl α-D-galactoside in fair yield.This technique failed when o-nitrophenol was used.Tetra-O-acetyl-β-D-galactopyranosyl and hepta-O-acetyl-β-maltosyl chlorides were converted to p- or o-nitrophenyl α-D-glycosides and p-nitrophenyl α-D-1-thioglycosides in good yield using hexamethylphosphoramide as a solvent and the sodium salt of the phenols as nucleophiles.The galactosides have been functionalized for further condensation at the C-4 position by selective benzoylation.
Alpha-galactosidase production
-
, (2008/06/13)
A process for the production of α-galactosidase by culturing the mold Penicillium duponti in an aqueous medium containing at least one sugar with at least one αD-galactopyranosyl bond and collecting the mycelium thus obtained.
