Synthesis of cluster mannosides via a Ugi four-component reaction and their inhibition against the binding of yeast mannan to concanavalin A.
The Ugi four-component reaction (U-4CR) was utilized to prepare divalent and trivalent cluster mannosides with different scaffolds. The glycoclusters obtained were tested for their relative inhibitory potency against the binding of yeast mannan to concanavalin A by solid-phase enzyme-linked lectin assays (ELLA) using methyl alpha-D-mannopyranoside as a standard. Among them, a divalent mannoside containing aromatic groups showed the strongest binding affinity to concanavalin A.
