Unique tyrosine glycosylated amyloid-β(1-15) glycopeptides were synthesized with well-defined stereochemistry at the glycosidic linkages. Aided by these glycopeptides and tandem mass spectrometry analysis, the naturally existing amyloid-β glycopeptides, isolated from Alzheimer's disease patients, were determined to contain an α-linked N-acetyl galactosamine at the modified tyrosine 10 residue. Glycosylation can significantly impact the properties of amyloid-β as the glycopeptide has much lower affinity for Cu+ ions.

Oxyma and an oxyma derivative, (2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolan-4-yl)methyl 2-cyano-2-(hydroxyimino)acetate (5b), displayed a remarkable effect on selective esterifications of primary alcohols. A wide range of carboxylic acids could be esterified with primary alcohols by using EDCI, NaHCO3, and Oxyma or Oxyma derivative 5b in 5% H2O-CH3CN. Oxyma derivative 5b is particularly useful, since it could be removed after the reaction via a simple basic or an acidic aqueous workup procedure.
