Abstract

Convenient synthesis of an N-glycan octasaccharide (A) of the bisecting type was described. The stable and easily prepared orthoester F, 3 -O-chloroacetyl-4 ,6 -O-benzylidene-α-D-glucopyranose 1, 2 (chloromethyl 3,6-di-O-benzyl-2-deoxy-2-phthalimido-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→4)-3, 6-di-O-benzyl-2-deoxy-2-phthalimido-β-D-glucopyranosylazide-4 -yl orthoacetate), was designed as the key intermediate with two advantages: (1) distinguishing OH-2 from OH-3 in β-D-glucopyranoside to construct the central β-D-mannopyranoside by inverting the configuration of OH-2 in β-D-glucopyranoside and (2) distinguishing OH-4 and OH-6 from OH-3 in the β-D-mannopyranoside to introduce the bisecting GlcNAc residue.
