Ligand interactions with E-selectin. Identification of a new binding site for recognition of N-acyl aromatic glucosamine substituents of sialyl Lewis X.

Several N-acylglucosamine derivatives of sialyl Lewis X (1-3) were prepared using a combined chemical enzymatic approach and evaluated as an inhibitor of E-selectin-mediated cellular adhesion. Compounds with aromatic functionality, 1 and 2, were found to be 3-10 times more potent than the N-acetyl derivative (14) in an ELISA E-selectin cell adhesion assay. Conformational analysis with NMR indicated that the sialyl Lewis x domain of 1 retained the conformation of the N-acetyl derivative (14) despite the presence of the N-naphthamido group. The dramatic order of magnitude increase in potency of these monovalent structures can be utilized to design more potent selectin-based cell adhesion inhibitors.

6-O-Benzyl- and 6-O-silyl-N-acetyl-2-amino-2-N,3-O-carbonyl-2-deoxyglucosides: effective glycosyl acceptors in the glucosamine 4-OH Series. effect of anomeric stereochemistry on the removal of the oxazolidinone group.

[reaction: see text] The 4-OH groups of both alpha- and beta-methyl glycosides of N-acetylglucosamine, protected with an oxazolidinone spanning the nitrogen and O-3, and bearing benzyl or silyl protection on O-6, show excellent reactivity as acceptors in couplings to a range of glycosyl donors. The enhanced reactivity of these acceptors is attributed in part to the tied back nature of the oxazolidinone, which reduces hindrance around the nucleophilic oxygen. The N-acetyloxazolidinone function also reduces the tendency seen in simple N-acetylglucosamines toward amide glycosylation, and removes the possibility of problematic hydrogen bonding networks. In the beta-, but not the alpha-, series selective hydrolysis of the N-acetyloxazolidinone directly to the N-acetylglucosamine was possible with barium hydroxide, a feature attributed to chelate formation between the acetamide carbonyl group and the glycosidic oxygen in the beta-series.

One-pot synthesis of glucosamine oligosaccharides.

[reaction: see text] Tuning the reactivity of glycosyl donors derived from 2-amino-2-deoxy glucose by selective introduction of different N-protecting (NPhth and NHTroc) and anomeric leaving groups (ethylthio and phenylthio) enabled highly efficient oligosaccharide synthesis in a one-pot manner. One-pot sequential glycosylation of three and four units of 2-amino-2-deoxy glucose gave trisaccharides and tetrasaccharide in 50-81% yields.

[The synthesis and antiviral activity of glycyrrhizic acid conjugates with alpha-D-glucosamine and some glycosylamines].

Glycyrrhizic acid and its 30-methyl ester were conjugated with 2-amino-1,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-2-deoxy-alpha-D-glucopyranose, 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-beta-D-glucopyranosyl amine, 2,3,4-tri-O-acetyl-apha-L-arabinopyranosyl amine, 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-beta-D-glucopyranosyl amine, and beta-D-galactopyranosyl amine using N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and its mixtures with N-hydroxybenzotriazole. Structures of the conjugates were confirmed by IR, UV, 1H, and 13C NMR spectroscopy. The glycoconjugate with the residues of 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-beta-D-glucopyranosyl amine in the carbohydrate part of its molecule exhibited antiviral activity (ID50 4 microg/ml) toward the herpes simplex type 1 virus (HSV-1) in the VERO cell culture. Two compounds demonstrated anti-HIV-1 activity (50-70% inhibition of p24) in a culture of MT-4 cells at concentrations of 0.5-20 microg/ml.
