| Abstract: | A synthesis of alpha-D-Manp-(1----3)-beta-D-GlcpNAc-(1----4)]-alpha-D-Manp++ +-(1----6)]- beta-D-Manp-(1----4)-beta-D-GlcpNAc-(1----4)-alpha-L-Fucp-( 1----6)]-D- GlcpNAc was achieved by employing benzyl O-(3,4,6-tri-O-benzyl-2-deoxy-2-phthalimido-beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-(1--- -4)-O- (2-O-benzyl-beta-D-mannopyranosyl)-(1----4)-O-(3,6-di-O-benzyl-2-deoxy-2 - phthalimido-beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-(1----4)-3-O-benzyl-2-deoxy-6-O-p- methoxyphenyl-2-phthalimido-beta-D-glucopyranoside as a key glycosyl acceptor. Highly stereoselective mannosylation was performed by taking advantage of the 2-O-acetyl group in the mannosyl donors. The alpha-L-fucopyranosyl residue was also stereoselectively introduced by copper(II)-mediated activation of methyl 2,3,4-tri-O-benzyl-1-thio-beta-L-fucopyranoside. |
