Cyclophellitols are potent inhibitors of exo- and endoglycosidases. Efficient synthetic methodologies are needed to fully capitalize on this intriguing class of mechanism-based enzyme deactivators. We report the synthesis of an orthogonally protected cyclitol from d-glucal (19% yield over 12 steps) and its use in the synthesis of α-(1,3)-linked di- and trisaccharide dextran mimetics. These new glycomimetics may find use as Dextranase inhibitors, and the developed chemistries in widening the pale ...[more]
