Abstract
A DMF-modulated glycosylation approach for the stereoselective synthesis of α-Kdo glycosides with readily accessible peracetylated Kdo ynenoate as a donor was described. By utilizing this approach, we completed the synthesis of various linkage types of Kdo-Kdo disaccharides and the α-Kdo-containing protected trisaccharide variant relevant to the lipopolysaccharide of Coxiella burnetii strain Nine Mile.

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2024; 63:e202313985.

Abstract
3-Deoxy-d-manno-oct-2-ulosonic acid (Kdo) is an eight-carbon monosaccharide found widely in bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPSs) and capsule polysaccharides (CPSs). We developed an indirect method for the stereoselective synthesis of α-Kdo glycosides with a C3-p-tolylthio-substituted Kdo phosphite donor. The presence of the p-tolylthio group enhanced the reactivity, suppressed the formation of elimination by-products (2,3-enes), and provided complete α-stereocontrol. A variety of Kdo α-glycosides were synthesized by our method in excellent yields (up to 98 %). After glycosylation, the p-tolylthio group can be efficiently removed by free-radical reduction. Subsequently, the orthogonality of the phosphite donor and thioglycoside donor was demonstrated by the one-pot synthesis of a trisaccharide in Helicobacter pylori and Neisseria meningitidis LPS. Moreover, an efficient total synthesis route to the challenging 4,5-branched Kdo trisaccharide in LPSs from several A. baumannii strains was highlighted. To demonstrate the high reactivity of our approach further, the highly crowded 4,5,7,8-branched Kdo pentasaccharide was synthesized as a model molecule for the first time. Additionally, the reaction mechanism was investigated by DFT calculations.

Abstract
An expedient synthesis of the nonreducing hexasaccharide fragment of axinelloside A has been completed via a linear stepwise glycosylation approach. Challenges involved in the synthesis include the highly stereoselective construction of five consecutive 1,2-cis-glycosidic linkages and the formation of a sterically crowded 2,3-disubstituted l-fucoside subunit. Protecting group-directing glycosylation strategies such as the remote participation effect of the benzoyl substituent and the stereocontrolling effect of the 4,6-O-benzylidene group were employed for the synthesis of the desired 1,2-cis-glycosidic linkages. Moreover, the 2,3-branched l-fucoside framework was established through a 3-O and then 2-O glycosylation sequence in which the 3-hydroxyl group of the core l-fucose unit was glycosylated first and then the 2-hydroxyl. The synthetic hexasaccharide is properly protected, so it can be employed as a precursor to synthesize its natural form.

Abstract
Acinetobacter baumannii is currently posing a serious threat to global health. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is a potent virulence factor of pathogenic Gram-negative bacteria. To explore the antigenic properties of A. baumannii LPS, four Kdo-containing inner core glycans from A. baumannii strain ATCC 17904 were synthesized. A flexible and divergent method based on the use of the orthogonally substituted α-Kdo-(2→5)-Kdo disaccharides was developed. Selective removal of different protecting groups in these key precursors and elongation of sugar chain via α-stereocontrolled coupling with 5,7-O-di-tert-butylsilylene or 5-O-benzoyl protected Kdo thioglycosides and 2-azido-2-deoxyglucosyl thioglycoside allowed efficient assembly of the target molecules. Glycan microarray analysis of sera from infected patients revealed that the 4,5-branched Kdo trimer was a potential antigenic epitope, which is attractive for further immunological research to develop carbohydrate vaccines against A. baumannii.

Abstract
A simple and direct DMF-modulated α-selective Kdo glycosylation approach for the stereoselective synthesis of the α-linked Kdo glycosides is developed. Glycosylation of the readily available peracetylated Kdo ortho-hexynylbenzoate with common acceptor alcohols using SPhosAuNTf2 as a promoter and DMF as a modulating molecule afforded a range of Kdo glycosides with good α-selectivities. Furthermore, the present method is effectively applied in the latent-active synthesis of the α-linked di-Kdo glycoside bearing a linker at the reducing end. Finally, the first observation of a Kdo imidinium ion in the low-temperature NMR provides evidence for the plausible mechanism of the DMF-modulated α-selective Kdo glycosylation.
