A minimalist approach to stereoselective glycosylation with unprotected donors.

ABSTRACT: Mechanistic study of carbohydrate interactions in biological systems calls for the chemical synthesis of these complex structures. Owing to the specific stereo-configuration at each anomeric linkage and diversity in branching, significant breakthroughs in recent years have focused on either stereoselective glycosylation methods or facile assembly of glycan chains. Here, we introduce the unification approach that offers both stereoselective glycosidic bond formation and removal of protection/deprotection steps required for further elongation. Using dialkylboryl triflate as an in situ masking reagent, a wide array of glycosyl donors carrying one to three unprotected hydroxyl groups reacts with various glycosyl acceptors to furnish the desired products with good control over regioselectivity and stereoselectivity. This approach demonstrates the feasibility of straightforward access to important structural scaffolds for complex glycoconjugate synthesis.

Fluoride Migration Catalysis Enables Simple, Stereoselective, and Iterative Glycosylation.

Project description:Challenges in the assembly of glycosidic bonds in oligosaccharides and glycoconjugates pose a bottleneck in enabling the remarkable promise of advances in the glycosciences. Here, we report a strategy that applies unique features of highly electrophilic boron catalysts, such as tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane, in addressing a number of the current limitations of methods in glycoside synthesis. This approach utilizes glycosyl fluoride donors and silyl ether acceptors while tolerating the Lewis basic environment found in carbohydrates. The method can be carried out at room temperature using air- and moisture-stable forms of the catalyst, with loadings as low as 0.5 mol %. These characteristics enable a wide array of glycosylation patterns to be accessed, including all C1-C2 stereochemical relationships in the glucose, mannose, and rhamnose series. This method allows one-pot, iterative glycosylations to generate oligosaccharides directly from monosaccharide building blocks. These advances enable the rapid and experimentally straightforward preparation of complex oligosaccharide units from simple building blocks.

A minimalist NMR approach for the structural revision of mucoxin.

Project description:In an attempt to revise the structural assignment of mucoxin, and faced with 64 diastereomeric possibilities, we resorted to the synthesis of truncated structures that contained the core stereochemical sites. Twelve stereochemical analogues were synthesized, their (1)H and (13)C NMR spectra were analyzed and four recurring stereochemical trends were distilled from the data. Applying the observed trends to the diastereomeric population pared the possible choices for the correct structure of mucoxin from 64 to 4. Synthesis of these analogues led to the identification of the correct structure of mucoxin.

BioC: a minimalist approach to interoperability for biomedical text processing.

Project description:A vast amount of scientific information is encoded in natural language text, and the quantity of such text has become so great that it is no longer economically feasible to have a human as the first step in the search process. Natural language processing and text mining tools have become essential to facilitate the search for and extraction of information from text. This has led to vigorous research efforts to create useful tools and to create humanly labeled text corpora, which can be used to improve such tools. To encourage combining these efforts into larger, more powerful and more capable systems, a common interchange format to represent, store and exchange the data in a simple manner between different language processing systems and text mining tools is highly desirable. Here we propose a simple extensible mark-up language format to share text documents and annotations. The proposed annotation approach allows a large number of different annotations to be represented including sentences, tokens, parts of speech, named entities such as genes or diseases and relationships between named entities. In addition, we provide simple code to hold this data, read it from and write it back to extensible mark-up language files and perform some sample processing. We also describe completed as well as ongoing work to apply the approach in several directions. Code and data are available at http://bioc.sourceforge.net/.

Silver-catalyzed stereoselective formation of glycosides using glycosyl ynenoates as donors.

Project description:A silver-catalyzed glycosylation reaction employing readily accessible and stable glycosyl ynenoates is developed. This reaction is mostly high yielding and exhibits varying levels of stereoinversion at the anomeric position. Compared to established and versatile Yu's gold catalysis, this chemistry features the use of substantially cheaper AgNTf2.

Palladium-Catalyzed ?-Stereoselective O-Glycosylation of O(3)-Acylated Glycals.

Project description:Pd(MeCN)2Cl2 enables the ?-stereoselective catalytic synthesis of 2,3-unsaturated O-glycosides from O(3)-acylated glycals without the requirement for additives to preactivate either donor or nucleophile. Mechanistic studies suggest that, unlike traditional (?3-allyl)palladium-mediated processes, the reaction proceeds via an alkoxy-palladium intermediate that increases the proton acidity and oxygen nucleophilicity of the alcohol. The method is exemplified with the synthesis of a range of glycosides and glycoconjugates of synthetic utility.

Project description:The use of a bifunctional cinchona/thiourea organocatalyst for the direct and α-stereoselective glycosylation of 2-nitrogalactals is demonstrated for the first time. The conditions are mild, practical, and applicable to a wide range of glycoside acceptors with products being isolated in good to excellent yields. The method is exemplified in the synthesis of mucin type Core 6 and 7 glycopeptides.

Organoiron- and Fluoride-Catalyzed Phosphinidene Transfer to Styrenic Olefins in a Stereoselective Synthesis of Unprotected Phosphiranes.

Project description:Catalytic phosphiranation has been achieved, allowing preparation of trans-1-R-2-phenylphosphiranes (R = t-Bu: 1-t-Bu; i-Pr: 1-i-Pr) from the corresponding dibenzo-7-(R)-7-phospha-norbornadiene (RPA, A = C14H10, anthracene) and styrene in 73% and 57% isolated yields, respectively. The cocatalyst system requires tetramethylammonium fluoride (TMAF) and [Fp(THF)][BF4] (Fp = Fe(?5-C5H5)(CO)2). In the case of the t-Bu derivative, the reaction mechanism was probed using stoichiometric reaction studies, a Hammett analysis, and a deuterium labeling experiment. Together, these suggest the intermediacy of iron-phosphido FpP(F)(t-Bu) (2), generated independently from the stoichiometric reaction of [Fp(t-BuPA)][BF4] with TMAF. Two other plausible reaction intermediates, [Fp(t-BuPA)][BF4] and [Fp(1-t-Bu)][BF4], were prepared independently and structurally characterized.

OFox imidates as versatile glycosyl donors for chemical glycosylation.

Project description:Previously we communicated 3,3-difluoroxindole (HOFox) - mediated glycosylations wherein 3,3-difluoro-3H-indol-2-yl (OFox) imidates were found to be key intermediates. Both the in situ synthesis from the corresponding glycosyl bromides and activation of the OFox imidates could be conducted in a regenerative fashion. Herein, we extend this study with the main focus on the synthesis of various OFox imidates and their investigation as glycosyl donors for chemical 1,2-cis and 1,2-trans glycosylation.

Rapid phenolic O-glycosylation of small molecules and complex unprotected peptides in aqueous solvent.

Project description:Glycosylated natural products and synthetic glycopeptides represent a significant and growing source of biochemical probes and therapeutic agents. However, methods that enable the aqueous glycosylation of endogenous amino acid functionality in peptides without the use of protecting groups are scarce. Here, we report a transformation that facilitates the efficient aqueous O-glycosylation of phenolic functionality in a wide range of small molecules, unprotected tyrosine, and tyrosine residues embedded within a range of complex, fully unprotected peptides. The transformation, which uses glycosyl fluoride donors and is promoted by Ca(OH)2, proceeds rapidly at room temperature in water, with good yields and selective formation of unique anomeric products depending on the stereochemistry of the glycosyl donor. High functional group tolerance is observed, and the phenol glycosylation occurs selectively in the presence of virtually all side chains of the proteinogenic amino acids with the singular exception of Cys. This method offers a highly selective, efficient, and operationally simple approach for the protecting-group-free synthesis of O-aryl glycosides and Tyr-O-glycosylated peptides in water.
