title: Lipid A and related compounds. XXVII. An efficient synthesis of D-galactosamine-4-phosphate analogs of lipid A via a novel key intermediate.
abstract: A new methodology for chemical differentiation of one amino and four hydroxyl groups of D-galactosamine derivatives and its application for the synthesis of D-galactosamine-4-phosphate analogs of lipid A are described. Preliminary examination of biological activity revealed that the synthetic monosaccharides show mitogenic activity.
