Abstract

A concise route to a new β‐ketophosphonate analog of glycosyl nucleotides is described. Such a diphosphate bioisostere is a stable mimic of enzyme substrates involved in peptidoglycan biosynthesis and will be the starting point for the development of new potential antibiotics. The synthesis is carried out by condensing a lithiomethylenephosphonate derivative on a methyl N‐acetylglucosaminylacetate followed by esterification with a uridine derivative.

Previous reports have suggested that changes in oligosaccharide structures, especially ␤1-6 branching in N-glycans, which are biosynthesized by UDP-N-acetylglucosamine:␣ mannoside ␤1,6 N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase (GnT-V), are linked to tumor metastasis and invasion. In the present study, we inve
