  • Title: Synthesis of the starfish ganglioside LLG-3 tetrasaccharide.
    Author: Hanashima S, Ishikawa D, Akai S, Sato K.
    Journal: Carbohydr Res; 2009 Apr 21; 344(6):747-52. PubMed ID: 19281969.
    Abstract:
    The first synthesis of the ganglioside LLG-3 tetrasaccharide, which has attractive biological activities as well as a unique structure, is described. A C8-methoxy decorated sialic acid building block was initially prepared and a glycolic acid moiety was then introduced by sialylation. Amide condensation between the sialyl glycolic acid and an amino group at C5 on the sialyllactoside unit afforded the fully protected LLG-3 tetrasaccharide. Finally, the desired tetrasaccharide part of LLG-3 was obtained after careful global deprotection. [structure: see text].
