  • Title: Synthesis of chitotetraose and chitohexaose based on dimethylmaleoyl protection.
    Author: Aly MR, Ibrahim ES, El Ashry ES, Schmidt RR.
    Journal: Carbohydr Res; 2001 Mar 22; 331(2):129-42. PubMed ID: 11322727.
    Abstract:
    tert-Butyldimethylsilyl 3,6-di-O-benzyl-2-deoxy-2-dimethylmaleimido-beta-D-glucopyranoside was readily transformed into the disaccharide glycosyl donor, 3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-2-deoxy-2-dimethylmaleimido-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 --> 4)-3,6-di-O-benzyl-2-deoxy-2-dimethylmaleimido-alpha/beta-D-glucopyranosyl trichloroacetimidate, and the disaccharide glycosyl acceptor, tert-butyldimethylsilyl 3,6-di-O-benzyl-2-deoxy-2-dimethylmaleimido-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 --> 4)-3,6-di-O-benzyl-2-deoxy-2-dimethylmaleimido-beta-D-glucopyranoside. A TMSOTf-catalysed coupling of the acceptor with the donor afforded the respective tetrasaccharide derivative, which can be transformed to chitotetraose. tert-Butyldimethylsilyl 3,6-di-O-benzyl-2-deoxy-2-dimethylmaleimido-4-O-phenoxyacetyl-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 --> 4)-3,6-di-O-benzyl-2-deoxy-2-dimethylmaleimido-beta-D-glucopyranoside was converted into donor 3,6-di-O-benzyl-2-deoxy-2-dimethylmaleimido-4-O-phenoxyacetyl-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 --> 4)-3,6-di-O-benzyl-2-deoxy-2-dimethylmaleimido-beta-D-glucopyranosyl trichloroacetimidate. Its coupling with benzyl 3,6-di-O-benzyl-2-deoxy-2-dimethylmaleimido-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 --> 4)-3,6-di-O-benzyl-2-deoxy-2-dimethylmaleimido-beta-D-glucopyranoside, followed by dephenoxyacetylation, gave benzyl 3,6-di-O-benzyl-2-deoxy-2-dimethylmaleimido-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 --> 4)-3,6-di-O-benzyl-2-deoxy-2-dimethylmaleimido-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 --> 4)-3,6-di-O-benzyl-2-deoxy-2-dimethylmaleimido-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 --> 4)-3,6-di-O-benzyl-2-deoxy-2-dimethylmaleimido-beta-D-glucopyranoside, whose glycosylation furnished, after replacement of the DMM-group by the acetyl moiety and subsequent deprotection, chitohexaose.
