✦ Synopsis


The synthesis of the hexasaccharide 2-(4-trifhioroacetamidophenyl)ethyl O-o-o-galactopyranosyl-(1 + 3)-[O_cu-D-galactopyranosyl-(I + 6)]-O-a-o-ghtcopyranosyl_(l --) 3)-[O-L-g&cero-o-D-r?zanno-heptopyranosyl-(1 + 7)]-0-L-g/yceroa-D-manno-heptopyranosyl-(1 + 3)-r_-glycero-a-o-manno-heptopyrauoside, corresponding to the heptose and part of the hexose region in the Salmonella Ra core, is described. Syntheses of the pentasaccharide 2_(4-trifluoroacetamidophenyl)ethyl O-a-o-galactopyranosyl-(1 + 3)-O-o-o-glucopyranosyl-(1 + 3)[0-L-glyceroa-~~mznno-heptopyranosyl-(I -+ 7)]-0-L-glyceroa-D-manno-heptopyranosyL(1 + 3)-L-glycero-a-o-manno-heptopyranoside and the tetrasaccharide 2-(4-trifluoroacetamidophenyljethyl 0-cu-o-glucopyranosyL(1 + 3)-[O-L-glycero-a-o-manno-heptopyranosyl-(I + 7)]-0-r_-glyceroa-o-manno-heptopyranosyl-(I + 3)r_-gbcero_cY-o-manno-heptopyranoside are also described. Coupling of methyl 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-benxykl-thio-p-o-glucopyranoside and methyl 2-O-benzyl-4,6-O-benzylidene-3-0-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-be~l~-o-galactop~~osyl)-1-thio-~-o-glucopyranoside

to a triheptoside derivative with a free HO-3', using dimethyl(methylthio)sulfonium triflate and N-iodosuccinimide-silver triflate as promoters, gave the protected tetra-and penta-saccharide, respectively. Removal of the benxylidene group from the pentasaccharide followed by a regio-and stereo-selective coupling using halide-assisted conditions and L&3,4,6-tetra-0-benzykr-o-galactopyranosyl bromide as donor gave the protected hexasaccharide. Deprotection then gave the target structures.
