Abstract: | Derivatives of 5,7-diamino-3,5,7,9-tetradeoxynon-2-ulosonic acids are essential constituents of some bacterial polysaccharides and glycoproteins. In order to establish reliably the configuration of the natural sugars, nine stereoisomeric 5,7-diacetamido-3,5,7,9-tetradeoxynon-2-ulosonic acids were synthesized, including di-N-acetyl-legionaminic and -pseudaminic acids (the D-glycero-D-galacto and L-glycero-L-manno isomers, respectively) and their isomers at C-4, C-5, C-7, and C-8 having the L-glycero-D-galacto, D-glycero-D-talo, L-glycero-D-talo, D-glycero-L-altro, L-glycero-L-altro, D-glycero-L-manno, and L-glycero-L-gluco configurations. Synthesis was performed by condensation of 2,4-diacetamido-2,4,6-trideoxy-L-gulose, -D-mannose, -D-talose, and -L-allose with oxalacetic acid under basic conditions, the reaction of the last two precursors being accompanied by epimerisation at C-2. The 1H and 13C NMR data of the synthetic compounds are discussed. Acetylated methyl esters of the C-7 and C-8 isomeric nonulosonic acids were prepared and used for analysis of the side-chain conformation by NMR spectroscopy. |
