Abstract

The nonhydrolyzable glycosidic linkage to sialic acid in the C-glycoside analogue of sTn, 1, is the key feature of the redesigned glycoconjugate. This potential antitumor and anti-HIV agent was prepared in one enzymatic and seventeen chemical steps starting from diisopropylidene galactopyranose.
