Abstract: | Glycosylation of methyl (allyl 7,8-O-carbonyl-3-deoxy-alpha-D-manno-2-octulo-pyranosid)o nate with an alpha-(2----4) linked per-O-acetylated KDO-disaccharide bromide derivative under Helferich conditions afforded a 2:1 mixture of the alpha- and beta-linked trisaccharide derivatives in 50% yield. Removal of the protecting groups gave sodium O-[sodium (3-deoxy-alpha-D-manno-2-octulopyranosyl)onate]-(2----4)-O-[ sodium (3-deoxy-alpha- and -beta-D-manno-2-octulopyranosyl)onate]-(2----4)-sodium (allyl 3-deoxy-alpha-D-manno-2-octulopyranosid)onate. Radical copolymerization of the allyl glycosides afforded artificial antigens, suitable for defining antibody specificities directed against the KDO-region of enterobacterial lipopolysaccharides. |
