Abstract
The ability of tetrachlorphthaloyl (TCP) sugars to act as glycosyl acceptors as well as the viability of TCP as a global amine protecting group in the syntheis of polyglucosamine natural products such as N-methyl-N-lipid nodulation factors have been examined. Disaccharides corresponding to the reducing end segments and the core region of the target nodulation factors were assembled from n-pentenlyl glycosides. TCP acceptors were successfully coupled with a variety of pentenyl glycosyl donors to produce β-(1→4) oligosaccharides in good yields. Model coupling reactions to produce trisaccharides provided clear evidence for the disarming effect of an ester at O3 on a C4-OH in the glycosyl acceptor. Also, a unique pentenyl donor, which contained the desired N-metyl-N-lipid moiety of the non-reducing end segments of the target compounds, was synthesized and its efficacy in a coupling reaction was tested.
