Abstract
N‐Propanoyl‐, N‐butanoyl‐, N‐pentanoyl‐, N‐hexanoyl‐, N‐heptanoyl‐ and N‐crotonoyl‐[1‐^14^C]‐D‐glucosamine were synthesized from [1‐^14^C]‐D‐glucosamine and their respective carbonic acid anhydrides as precursors for the biosynthesis of the corresponding N‐acyl neuraminic acids. The N‐acyl‐glucosamines are phosphorylated to their respective phosphate by N‐acetyl‐glucosamine kinase in a rat liver homogenate. These precursors may become valuable tools to investigate the biological role of the N‐acyl side chain of N‐acyl‐glucosamines and N‐acyl neuraminic acids which are components of glycoconjugates.
