Nucleotide sugars are activated sugar precursors used by glycosyltransferases to form glycans. Here we report the first examples of resin-bound nucleotide sugars: fluorinated UDP-galactose and UDP-galactose. They were conjugated to a polyethylene glycol resin through the C6 position with an SMCC linker in good to excellent yields. This synthesis represents an efficient method to access resin-bound nucleotide sugars in a modular approach that enables modifications of the sugar or nucleotide before conjugation. The system has been conceived as a new chemistry-based screening system for enzymes that use UDP-galactose.

Natural killer T (NKT) cells recognize glycolipids produced by Sphingomonas bacteria, and these glycolipids contain C6-oxidized sugars, either glucuronic acid or galacturonic acid, linked to ceramides. Glycolipids with gluco stereochemistry are the most p
Synthesis of 1-deoxyhept-2-ulosyl-glycono-1,5-lactone utilizing α-selective O-glycosidation of 2,6-anhydro-1-deoxy-d-hept-1-enitols

A series of 1-deoxy-heptulo-2-pyranosyl-glycono-1,5-lactones were synthesized utilizing completely α-selective O-glycosidation of heptenitols. Anomeric configuration of the products was confirmed by 3JC,H coupling measurement and X-ray crystal structural analysis. The benzyl-protected ketosyl saccharides were partly unstable, and glycosidic linkage was prone to cleave under the usual debenzylation conditions. To prevent this, we surveyed various additives for the Pd-catalyzed hydrogenation reaction and found that basic alumina was the most effective.
