A new cyclic pentasaccharide comprising an oxymethylene glycosidic bond connecting the individual α-d-glycopyranoside monomers is synthesized through cycloglycosylation of a linear pentasaccharide precursor, which, in turn, is synthesized through the block glycosylation method. Molecular modeling shows that the 30-membered macrocyclic pentasaccharide is a distorted ellipsoid structure, with the lower and upper rims occupied by secondary and primary hydroxyl groups, respectively. Following the sy ...[more]
