✦ Synopsis


Benzyl 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-methyl-alpha-D-glucopyranoside (3) was obtained by deacetalation of its 4,6-O-benzylidene derivative (2). Compound 2 was prepared by methylation of benzyl 2-acetamido-4,6-O-benzylidene-2-deoxy-alpha-D-glucopyranoside with methyl iodide-silver oxide in N,N-dimethylformamide. Diol 3 was selectively benzoylated and p-toluenesulfonylated, to give the 6-benzoic and 6-p-toluenesulfonic esters (4 and 5, respectively). Displacement of the sulfonyl group of 5 with sodium benzoxide in benzyl alcohol afforded the 6-O-benzyl derivative (6). Glycosylation of 4 with 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-alpha-D-galactopyranosyl bromide (7) in dichloromethane, in the presence of 1,1,3,3-tetramethylurea, furnished the disaccharide derivative 8. Similar glycosylation of compound 6 with bromide 7 gave the disaccharide derivative 10. O-Deacetylation of 8 and 10 afforded disaccharides 9 and 11. The structure of compound 9 was established by 13C-n.m.r. spectroscopy. Hydrogenolysis of the benzyl groups of 11 furnished the disaccharide 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-4-O-beta-D-galactopyranosyl-3-O-methyl-D-glucopyr ano se (N-acetyl-3-O-methyllactosamine).

Recent years have seen a remarkable surge of interest in the study of U-Lfucosyltransferases. Of these L-fucosyltransferases, the enzyme (143)~a+fucosyltransferase has attracted a great deal of clinical interest as a potential tumor marker. This enzyme catalyzes the transfer of an L-fucosyl group f
