✦ Synopsis


A strategy for the synthesis of Brucella O-antigenic determinants containing 2-linked 4,6-dideoxy-4-formamido-alpha-D-mannopyranosyl residues is described. The approach adopted also permits the N-acyl moiety to be varied. A high-yield synthesis of methyl 4-azido-4,6-dideoxy-alpha-D-mannopyranoside from D-mannose on the 10-20-g scale provided the key intermediate. Regioselective acetylation of 7 gave the 2-acetate 8, which, on treatment with benzyl trichloroacetimidate, provided methyl 2-O-acetyl-4-azido-3-O-benzyl-4,6-dideoxy-alpha-D-mannopyranoside. This compound served as a common precursor to the glycosyl donor 12 and acceptor 10 molecules. Silver trifluoromethanesulphonate-promoted glycosylation of 10 by 12 gave a disaccharide derivative, hydrogenolysis of which gave methyl 4-amino-2-O-(4-amino-4,6-dideoxy-alpha-D-mannopyranosyl)-4,6-dideoxy- alpha-D-mannopyranoside from which the N-formyl and N-acetyl derivatives were obtained. Deacetylation of 13 followed by glycosylation with 12 gave a trisaccharide derivative. The N-formylated disaccharide 17 inhibited the binding of Brucella O-polysaccharide to Brucella-specific monoclonal antibodies.
