    Author: Wang W, Kong F.
    Journal: Carbohydr Res; 1999 Jan 31; 315(1-2):117-27. PubMed ID: 10385974.
    Abstract:
    The peracetylated hexasaccharide 1,2,4-tri-O-acetyl-3-O-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-6- O- (2,3,4-tri-O-acetyl-6-O-(2,4-di-O-acetyl-3,6-di-O-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acety l- beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-alp ha, beta-D-glucopyranose 21 was synthesized in a blockwise manner, employing trisaccharide trichloroacetimidate 2,4-di-O-acetyl-3,6-di-O-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-beta-D-glucopyranosyl)- alpha-D-glucopyranosyl trichloroacetimidate 17 as the glycosyl donor, and trisaccharide 4-O-acetyl-3-O-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-6-O-(2,3,4 -tri -O-acetyl-beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-1,2-O-(R,S)ethylidene-alpha-D-glucopyra nose 18 as the acceptor. The donor 17 and acceptor 18 were readily prepared from trisaccharides 3-O-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-6-O-(2,3,4-tri-O-acet yl- 6-O-chloroacetyl-beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-1,2-O-(R,S)ethylidene-alpha-D- glucopyranose 10 and 3,6-di-O-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-1,2-O-(R,S) ethylidene-alpha-D-glucopyranose 11, respectively, which were obtained from rearrangement of orthoesters 3,4-di-O-acetyl-6-O-chloroacetyl-alpha-D-glucopyranose 1,2-(3-O-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-1,2-O-(R,S) ethylidene-alpha-D-glucopyranosid-6-yl orthoacetate) 8 and 3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-alpha-D-glucopyranose 1,2-(3-O-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-1,2-O-(R,S) ethylidene-alpha-D-glucopyranosid-6-yl orthoacetate) 9, respectively. The orthoesters were prepared from selective coupling of the disaccharide 3-O-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-1,2-O-(R,S) ethylidene-alpha-D-glucopyranose 4 with 'acetobromoglucose' (tetra-O-acetyl-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl bromide) and 6-O-chloroacetylated 'acetobromoglucose', respectively. To confirm the selectivity of the orthoester formation and rearrangement, the disaccharide 4-O-acetyl-3-O-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-1,2-O-(R,S ) ethylidene-alpha-D-glucopyranose 7 was prepared from 4 by selective tritylation, acetylation and detritylation. The title compound, an elicitor-active D-glucohexaose 3-O-(beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-6-O-(6-O-(3,6-di-O-(beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-b eta -D-glucopyranosyl)-beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-alpha,beta-D-glucopyranose 1, was finally obtained by Zemplén deacetylation of 21 in quantitative yield.
