Highly regioselective synthesis of a 3-O-sulfonated arabino Lewis(a) asparagine building block suitable for glycopeptide synthesis.
Using the stannylene method, the trisaccharide 2-acetamido-3-O-[6-O-benzyl-beta-D-galactopyranosyl]-4-O-[2,3,4-tri-O-benzyl-beta-D-arabinopyranosyl]-6-O-benzyl-2-deoxy-beta-D-glucopyranosyl azide was regioselectively sulfonated and, after reduction of the anomeric azide, coupled to Fmoc alpha-allyl aspartate. After Pd(0)-catalyzed deallylation, the sulfatyl Lewis(a) asparagine building block was obtained, suitable for solid-phase glycopeptide synthesis applying the fluoride labile PTMSEL linker system.
