✦ Synopsis
The phosphorylation of 2,3,4-tri-O-acetyl- (\alpha)-D-fucopyranose with (\sigma)-phenylene phosphochloridate yielded (\alpha \cdot) D-fucopyranosyl phosphate which was used for condensation with uridine 5 '-monophosphomorpholidate to give uridine (5^{\prime})-( (\alpha)-D-fucopyranosyl diphosphate) (UDP- (\alpha)-D-fucose). A crude enzyme preparation from young leaves of Digitalis lanata EHRH has been shown to catalyze the transfer of (\mathrm{D})-fucose from synthetic UDP- (\alpha)-D-fucose to cardenolide aglycones, such as digitoxigenin. The reaction product was identified and characterized by chemical synthesis, HPLC, and spectral methods as the (3 \beta-O-\beta)-D-fucopyranoside of digitoxigenin (digiproside). 1994 Academic Press, Inc.
