3Deoxy-D-manno-2-octulosonic acid (KDO) is a prominent constituent of the cell-surface macromolecules of Gram-negative bacterial, and recently has also been found\* as a component of the cell walls of higher plants. In the bacterial lipopolysaccharides (US), KDO occurs as an cu-D-ketosidic component

✦ Synopsis
A variety of the protected O-[(3-deoxy-a-D-manno-2-octulopyranosyl)onic acid]-(2+4)-3-deoxy-D-marano-2octulosonic acid [a-Kdo-(2+4)-Kdo] derivatives have been synthesized starting from methyl [2-(trimethylsilyl)ethyl4,5,7,8-tetra-Oacetyl-3-deoxy-a-D-manno-2-octulopyranosid]onate. Some of these were conjugated with a protected form of a bacterial lipid A subunit-analog (GLA-60) having beneficial immunopharmacological activity, namely benzyl 2-[(3R)-3-(benzyloxymethoxy)tetradecanamido]-2-deoxy-4-O-(diphenoxyphosphinyl)-3-0-[(3R)-3-tetradecanoyloxytetradecanoyl]-/3-D-glucopyranoside. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION As previously described5, the 2-0-(tetrahydro-2-pyranyl) (2-O-TI-IP) deriva-*Presented at the XIVth International Carbohydrate Symposium,
