Abstract
The transmannosylation activity of β-mannosidase from snail and β-galactosidase from Aspergillus oryzae was used for the synthesis of methyl, ethyl, 1-propyl, 2-propyl, 1-butyl, 2-butyl, 1-hexyl, cyclohexyl, and 1-octyl β-D-mannopyranosides (3a-i), respectively. The regioisomeric specificities and wide substrate acceptance of this galactosidase are demonstrated. Thus, 4-nitrophenyl 4-O-(α-D-glucopyranosyl)-β-D-glucopyranoside (6), 4-nitrophenyl 2-O-(β-D-glucopyranosyl)-β-D-glucopyranoside (7), 4-nitrophenyl 2-deoxy-2N-acetyl-6-O-(2-deoxy-2-N-acetyl-β-D-glucopyranosyl)-β-D-glucopyranoside(8),4-nitropheny 13-O-(β-D-mannopyranosyl)-α-D-mannopyranoside (9), and 4-nitrophenyl 4-O-(β-D-mannopyranosyl)-β-D-mannopyranoside (10) were prepared by chemoenzymatic self-transfer reaction.
