    Journal: Carbohydr Res; 1999 Mar 31; 316(1-4):121-32. PubMed ID: 10420591.
    Abstract:
    The disaccharide donor O-[2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-beta-D- galactopyranosyl)-(1-->4)-3,6-di-O-benzyl-2-deoxy-2-dimethylmaleimido - alpha,beta-D-glucopyranosyl] trichloroacetimidate (7) was prepared by reacting O-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl- alpha-D-galactopyranosyl) trichloroacetimidate with tert-butyldimethylsilyl 3,6-di-O-benzyl-2-deoxy-2- dimethylmaleoylamido-glucopyranoside to give the corresponding disaccharide 5. Deprotection of the anomeric center and then reaction with trichloroacetonitrile afforded 7. Reaction of 7 with 3'-O-unprotected benzyl (2,4,6-tri-O-benzyl-beta-D-galactopyranosyl)- (1-->4)-2,3,6-tri-O-benzyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside (8) as acceptor afforded the desired tetrasaccharide benzyl (2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-beta-D-galactopyranosyl)-(1-->4)-(3,6-di-O- benzyl-2-deoxy-2-dimethylmaleimido-beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-(1-->3)- (2,4,6- tri-O-benzyl-beta-D-galactopyranosyl)-(1-->4)-2,3,6-tri-O-benzyl-beta-D- glucopyranoside. Replacement of the N-dimethylmaleoyl group by the acetyl group, O-debenzylation and finally O-deacetylation gave lacto-N-neotetraose. Similarly, reaction of O-[(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-beta- D-galactopyranosyl)-(1-->3)-4,6-O-benzylidene-2-deoxy-2-dimethylmalei mido- alpha,beta-D-glycopyranosyl] trichloroacetimidate as donor with 8 as acceptor afforded the desired tetrasaccharide benzyl (2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-beta-D- galactopyranosyl)-(1-->3)-(4,6-benzylidene-2-deoxy-2-dimethylmaleimid o- beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-(1-->3)-(2,4,6-tri-O-benzyl-beta-D-galactopyranos yl)- (1-->4)-2,3,6-tri-O-benzyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside. Removal of the benzylidene group, replacement of the N-dimethylmaleoyl group by the acetyl group and then O-acetylation afforded tetrasaccharide intermediate 15, which carries only O-benzyl and O-acetyl protective groups. O-Debenzylation and O-deacetylation gave lacto-N-tetraose (1). Additionally, known tertbutyldimethylsilyl (2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-beta-D-galactopyranosyl)-(1-->3)-4,6-O-benzylide ne- 2-deoxy-2-dimethylmaleimido-beta-D-glucopyranoside was transformed into O-[2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-beta-D-galactopyranosyl)- (1-->3)-4,6-di-O-acetyl-2-deoxy-2-dimethylmaleimido-alpha,beta-D- glucopyranosyl] trichloroacetimidate as glycosyl donor, to afford with 8 as acceptor the corresponding tetrasaccharide 22, which is transformed into 15, thus giving an alternative approach to 1.
