T(N) antigen building blocks Nalpha-(9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl)-O-(3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-2-azido-2-deoxy-alpha-D-galactopyranosyl)-L-serine/L-threonine pentafluorophenyl ester [Fmoc-L-Ser/L-Thr(Ac3-alpha-D-GalN3)-OPfp, 13/14] have been synthesized by two different routes, which have been compared. Overall isolated yields [three or four chemical steps, and minimal intermediary purification steps] of enantiopure 13 and 14 were 5-18% and 6-10%, respectively, based on 3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-D-galactal (1). A byproduct of the initial azidonitration reaction of the synthetic sequence, that is, N-acetyl-3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-2-azido-2-deoxy-alpha-D-galactopyranosylamine (5), has been characterized by X-ray crystallography, and shown by 1H NMR spectroscopy to form complexes with lithium bromide, lithium iodide, or sodium iodide in acetonitrile-d3. Intermediates 3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-2-azido-2-deoxy-alpha-D-galactopyranosyl bromide (6) and 3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-2-azido-2-deoxy-beta-D-galactopyranosyl chloride (7) were used to glycosylate Nalpha-(9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl)-L-serine/L-threonine pentafluorophenyl esters [Fmoc-L-Ser/L-Thr-OPfp, 11/12]. Previously undescribed low-level dehydration side reactions were observed at this stage; the unwanted byproducts were easily removed by column chromatography.
已通过两种不同路线合成了T(N)抗原构建块Nα-(9-芴甲氧羰基)-O-(3,4,6-三-O-乙酰基-2-叠氮基-2-脱氧-α-D-吡喃半乳糖基)-L-丝氨酸/L-苏氨酸五氟苯酯[Fmoc-L-Ser/L-Thr(Ac3-α-D-GalN3)-OPfp,13/14],并对这两条路线进行了比较。基于3,4,6-三-O-乙酰基-D-半乳糖烯(1),对映体纯的13和14的总分离产率[三或四个化学步骤,以及最少的中间纯化步骤]分别为5-18%和6-10%。合成序列初始叠氮硝化反应的副产物,即N-乙酰基-3,4,6-三-O-乙酰基-2-叠氮基-2-脱氧-α-D-吡喃半乳糖胺(5),已通过X射线晶体学表征,并通过1H NMR光谱表明在氘代乙腈中与溴化锂、碘化锂或碘化钠形成配合物。中间体3,4,6-三-O-乙酰基-2-叠氮基-2-脱氧-α-D-吡喃半乳糖基溴(6)和3,4,6-三-O-乙酰基-2-叠氮基-2-脱氧-β-D-吡喃半乳糖基氯(7)用于糖基化Nα-(9-芴甲氧羰基)-L-丝氨酸/L-苏氨酸五氟苯酯[Fmoc-L-Ser/L-Thr-OPfp,11/12]。在此阶段观察到了以前未描述的低水平脱水副反应;不需要的副产物可通过柱色谱轻松去除。
