| Abstract: | The tetrasaccharide a-D-Glcp-(1----4)-a-D-Xylp-(1----4)-a-D-Xylp-(1----4)-D- Glcp (1) has been synthesized, as a substrate analogue of alpha amylase, by silver perchlorate-catalyzed glycosylation of benzyl 2,3,6-tri-O-benzyl-4-O-(2,3-di-O-benzyl-a-D-xylopyranosyl)-beta-D- glucopyranoside (30) with 2,3-di-O-benzyl-4-O-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-benzyl-a-D- glucopyranosyl)-a-D-xylopyranosyl chloride or by methyl triflate-promoted condensation of 30 with methyl 2,3-di-O-benzyl-4-O-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-benzyl-a-D-glucopyranosyl)-1-thio- beta-D-xylopyranoside, followed by removal of protecting groups of the resulting tetrasaccharide derivative 40. |
