[Synthesis of Neu5Ac(alpha2-->6)[Gal(alpha1-->3)]GalNAcalpha and Neu5Ac(alpha2-->6)[Gal(beta1-->3)]GalNAcalpha trisaccharides as protected trifluoroacetamidopropyl glycosides].
Protected sialo-containing trisaccharides, fragments of oligosaccharide chains of mucin glycoproteins, were synthesized. Regioselective sialylation of the primary hydroxyl group of (3-fluoroacetamidopropyl)-2-azido-2-deoxy-3-O-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-ben zyl)-alpha -D-galactopyranosyl)-alpha-D-galactopyranoside with methyl ester of peracetyl-beta-ethylthioglycoside of N-acetylneuraminic acid in the presence of N-iodosuccinimide and trifluoromethanesulfonic acid (or its trimethylsilyl ester) yielded 39 and 25% of alpha- and beta-sialyl-(2-->6)biosides, respectively. Catalytic hydrogenolysis of the azide and benzyl groups of the alpha-anomer followed by N- and O-acetylation gave target trifluoroacetamidopropyl glycoside, Neu5Ac(alpha 2-->6)[Gal(alpha 1-->3)]GalNAc alpha-OSp, as a peracetate. An analogous coupling of the sialyl donor with (3-fluoroacetamidopropyl)-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O- (2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl)-beta-D-galactopyranosyl)-alpha-D-galactopyranos ide affords acetylated trifluoroacetamidopropyl glycoside Neu5Ac(alpha 2-->6)[Gal(beta 1-->3)]GalNAc alpha-OSp in a yield of 15% and the corresponding Neu5Ac(beta 2-->6)-anomer in a yield of 12%. After O-deacetylation and N-detrifluoroacetylation, these sialylbiosides can be used as ligands in preparing neoglycoconjugates.
