The first chemical synthesis of MeO-3-GlcUAβ(1→3)GlcNAc-UDP to elucidate the catalytic mechanism of hyaluronic acid synthases (HASs) is described. Construction of the desired β(1→3)-linked disaccharide 10 was achieved very efficiently by coupling MeO-3-GlcUA donor 3 with the suitable protected GlcNTroc acceptor 4 using BF(3(.) )Et(2)O as Lewis acid. Chemoselective removal of anomeric NAP, phosphorylation, hydrogenation, coupling with UMP-morpholidate and finally complete deprotection gave the target compound 1 in good yield.
描述了首次化学合成MeO-3-GlcUAβ(1→3)GlcNAc-UDP以阐明透明质酸合酶(HASs)的催化机制。通过使用BF(3(.) )Et(2)O作为路易斯酸,将MeO-3-GlcUA供体3与合适的受保护的GlcNTroc受体4偶联,非常高效地构建了所需的β(1→3)连接的二糖10。化学选择性去除异头NAP、磷酸化、氢化、与UMP-吗啉代化物偶联,最后完全脱保护,以良好的产率得到目标化合物1。
