Synthesis and conformational analysis of 6-C-methyl-substituted 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-beta-D-glucopyranosyl mono- and disaccharides.

ABSTRACT: Several 6-C-substituted 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-beta-D-glucopyranosides (beta-D-GlcNAc monosaccharides 1a-3a and 1,4-linked disaccharides 1b-3b) were studied by solution NMR spectroscopy. Conformational analysis of the (6S)- and (6R)-C-methyl-substituted beta-d-GlcNAc monosaccharides indicates that the stereodefined methyl groups impose predictable conformational biases on the exocyclic C-5-C-6 bond, as determined by (1)H-(1)H and (13)C-(1)H coupling constants. Variable-temperature NMR experiments in methanol-d(4) were performed to determine DeltaDeltaH and DeltaDeltaS values derived from the two lowest energy conformers. These indicate that while the influence of 6-C-methyl substitution on conformational enthalpy is in accord with the classic principles of steric interactions, conformational preference in solution can also be strongly affected by other factors such as solvent-solute interactions and solvent reorganization.

Project description:X-ray analyses have shown that the glucopyranose rings of GlcNAc-Asn [4-N-(2-acetamido-2-deoxy-beta-d-glucopyranosyl)-l-asparagine] and Glc-Asn [4-N-(beta-d-glucopyranosyl)-l-asparagine] both have the C-1 chair conformation and also that the glucose-asparagine linkage of each molecule is present in the beta-anomeric configuration. The dimensions (the estimated standard deviations of the last digit are in parentheses) of the glycosidic bond in GlcNAc-Asn and Glc-Asn are, respectively, C((1))-N((1)) 0.1441(6)nm, 0.146(2)nm; angle O((5))-C((1))-N((1)) 106.8(3) degrees , 105.7(8) degrees ; angle C((2))-C((1))-N((1)) 111.1(4) degrees , 110.4(9) degrees ; angle C((1))-N((1))-C((9)) 121.4(4) degrees , 120.5(9) degrees . The glycosidic torsion angle C((9))-N((1))-C((1))-C((2)) is 141.0 degrees and 157.6 degrees in GlcNAc-Asn and Glc-Asn respectively. Hydrogen-bonding is extensive in these two crystal structures and does affect one torsion angle in particular. Two very different values of chi(1)(N-C(alpha)-C(beta)-C(gamma)) occur for the asparagine residue of the two different molecules; the values of chi(1), -69.0 degrees in GlcNAc-Asn and 61.9 degrees in Glc-Asn, correspond to two different staggered conformations about the C(alpha)-C(beta) bond as the NH(3) (+) group is adjusted to different hydrogen-bonding patterns. The two trans-peptide groups in GlcNAc-Asn show small distortions in planarity whereas that in Glc-Asn is more non-planar. The mean plane through the atoms of the amide group at C((2)) in GlcNAc-Asn is approximately perpendicular (69 degrees ) to the mean plane through the C((2)), C((3)), C((5)) and O((5)) atoms of the glucose ring and that at C((1)) is less perpendicular (65 degrees ). The mean plane through the atoms of the amide group in Glc-Asn makes an angle of only 55 degrees with the mean plane through these same four atoms of the glucose ring. The N((1))-H bond of the amide at C((1)) is trans to the C((1))-H bond in these two compounds; the N((2))-H bond of the amide at C((2)) is trans to the C((2))-H bond in GlcNAc-Asn. The values of the observed and final calculated structure amplitudes have been deposited as Supplementary Publication SUP 50035 (26 pages) at the British Library (Lending Division), (formerly the National Lending Library for Science and Technology), Boston Spa, Yorks.
