title: Synthesis of novel S-neoglycopeptides from glycosylthiomethyl derivatives.
abstract: Reaction of glycosylthiomethyl azides with amino acid and peptide derivatives containing aspartate and glutamate thio acids gave the corresponding glycosylthiomethyl amides in excellent yields. Another type of neoglycopeptides was obtained via reaction of glycosylthiomethyl bromide with cysteine and homocysteine containing peptide derivatives, thus affording the corresponding S-(glycosylthiomethyl) peptides.
