Abstract
α-Stereocontrolled, glycoside synthesis of trimeric sialic acid is described toward a systematic approach to the synthesis of sialoglycoconjugates containing an α-sialyl-(2→8)-α-sialyl-(2→8)-sialic acid unit α-glycosidically linked to O-3 of a galactose residue in their oligosaccharide chains. Glycosylation of 2-(trimethylsilyl)ethyl 6-O-benzoyl-β-d-galactopyranoside (4) or 2-(trimethylsilyl)ethyl 2,3,6,2′,6′-penta-O-benzyl-β-lactoside (5), with methyl [phenyl 5-acetamido-8-O-[5-acetamido-8-O-(5-acetamido-4,7,8,9-tetra-O-acetyl-3,5-dideoxy-d-glycero-α-d-galacto-2-nonulopyranosylono-1”, 9′-lactone)-4,7-di-O-acetyl-3,5-dideoxy-d-glycero-α-d-galacto-2-nonulopyranosylono-1′, 9-lactone]-4,7-di-O-acetyl-3,5-dideoxy-2-thio-d-glycero-d-galacto-2-nonulopyranosid]onate (3), using N-iodosuccinimide-trifluoromethanesulfonic acid as a promoter, gave the corresponding α-glycosides 6 and 8, respectively. The glycosyl donor 3 was prepared from trimeric sialic acid by treatment with Amberlite IR-120 (H+) resin in methanol, O-acetylation, and subsequent replacement of the anomeric acetoxy group with phenylthio. Compounds 6 and 8 were converted into the per-O-acyl derivatives 7 and 9, respectively.
