Abstract: An efficient synthesis of 4-methoxyphenyl α-l-Rhap-(1→3)-α-l-Rhap-(1→3)-α-l-Rhap-(1→2)-6-deoxy-α-l-Talp, the tetrasaccharide related to the GPLs of Mycobacterium intracellare serotype 7, was achieved with 4-methoxyphenyl 3,4-di-O-benzoyl-6-deoxy-α-l-talopyranoside (6c) as the key intermediate which was obtained through selective 3-O-benzoylation of 4-O-benzoyl-6-deoxy-α-l-taloside. Coupling of 6c with 3-O-allyloxycarbonyl-2,4-di-O-benzoyl-α-l-rhamnopyranosyl trichloroacetimidate followed by removal of the allyloxycarbonyl protecting group afforded the disaccharide acceptor 11. Condensation of 11 with 2,3,4-tri-O-benzoyl-α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→3)-2,4-di-O-benzoyl-α-l-rhamnopyranosyl trichloroacetimidate and subsequent deprotection gave the target tetrasaccharide.

Abstract: A highly efficient strategy for the preparation of a disaccharide-repeating unit of the O-antigenic polysaccharide of Burkholderia pseudomallei strain 304b, and its dimer and trimer, has been developed through a regio- and stereoselective manner using p-methoxylphenyl 2,4,6-tri-O-benzoyl-α-d-glucopyranoside and 3-O-allyloxycarbonyl-2,4-di-O-benzoyl-6-deoxy-α-l-talopyranosyl trichloroacetimidate as the key synthons. The target molecules were equipped with a p-methoxylphenyl handle at the reducing terminus to allow for their further functionalization and attachment to a carrier protein. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

Abstract: The synthesis of a trisaccharide and a hexasaccharide, the monomer and dimer of the repeating unit of O-antigen polysaccharide from Mesorhizobium huakuii IFO15243, has been accomplished through suitable protecting group manipulations and stereoselective glycosylation reactions starting from commercially available l-rhamnose. The target oligosaccharides in the form of their p-methoxyphenyl glycosides are suitable for further glycoconjugate formation via selective cleavage of this group. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: Concise synthesis of a 6-deoxy-α-l-talose tetrasaccharide, 6-deoxy-α-l-Talp-(1→3)-6-deoxy-α-l-Talp-(1→2)-6-deoxy-α-l-Talp-(1→3)-6-deoxy-α-l-Talp, the dimer of the disaccharide repeating unit of the OPS from Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans serotype c, has been accomplished through suitable protecting group manipulations and stereoselective glycosylation starting from commercially available l-rhamnose. The target oligosaccharide in the form of its p-methoxyphenyl glycoside is suitable for further glycoconjugate formation via selective cleavage of this group. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
