Carbohydr Res 2023; 530:108854.

Abstract
Amphiphilic glycoconjugates offer an important prospect for development as chemical biology tools and biosurfactants. The chemical synthesis of such materials is required to expedite such prospect, compounded by the example of oleyl glycosides. Herein, we report a mild and reliable glycosylation method to access oleyl glucosides, glycosidating oleyl alcohol with α-trichloroacetimidate donors. We demonstrate capability for this methodology, extending it to synthesise the first examples of pyranose-component fluorination and sulfhydryl modifications within glucosides and glucosamines of oleyl alcohol. These compounds provide an exciting series of tools to explore processes and materials that utilise oleyl glycosides, including as probes for glycosphingolipid metabolism.

Abstract
Two novel nonisosteric UDP-Gal analogues, (2-deoxy-2-fluoro- and 4-deoxy-4-fluoro-α-D-galactopyranosyl) phosphonoyl phosphates, were synthesized by optimized multistep procedures starting from 3,4,6-tri-O-benzyl-D-galactal and allyl 2,3,6-tri-O-benzyl-α-D-glucopyranoside, respectively. The key steps were a Michaelis-Arbuzov reaction of respective deoxy-fluoro-D-galactopyranosyl acetate with triethyl phosphite followed by a Moffatt-Khorana coupling reaction with UMP-morpholidate. The structure of all new compounds was confirmed by NMR and mass spectroscopies..

Abstract
A series of synthesized small linear and branched alpha-glucans has been studied by dynamic light scattering and combined size exclusion chromatography, refractive index measurement and static light scattering. The alpha-glucan molecules studied were maltose, maltotriose, maltopentaose, maltohexaose, maltoheptaose, panose, 6'-alpha-maltosyl-maltotriose, methyl 6'-alpha-maltosyl-maltotrioside, 6' '-alpha-maltosyl-maltotetraose, 6' ''-alpha-maltotriosyl-maltohexaose, and 6,6' '' '-bis(alpha-maltosyl)-maltohexaose. The alpha-glucan oligosaccharides appeared to be very flexible molecules having a variety of conformations and self-associating into noncovalent dimers and trimers (referring to the single molecule). The size distributions were narrow (compared to pullulan) indicating that the alpha-glucan oligosaccharides are relatively compact molecules. The branched oligomers that include one or more flexible alpha-(1 --> 6) linkages exhibit size distributions corresponding to more compact conformations than their linear counterparts. This observation may be explained by intermolecular interactions or water bridges facilitated by the additional flexibility of these molecules. For the branched maltohexaose, a significant noncovalent trimer formation was observed, whereas in all other cases, noncovalent dimers were formed. Model calculations suggest that both the linear and branched oligomers containing 5-10 alpha-glucose units exist predominantly in a partial or full single turn helix in agreement with the glycosidic linkage preferences derived for these molecules.

Abstract
The syntheses of a novel uridine diphosphate galactose (UDP-Gal) analog, (UDP-2,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-3-S-acetyl-3-thio-alpha-D-galactopyranose) (11) and the thiolpyridine protected (Uridine 5'-[3-S-(2-S-pyridyl)-3-thio-alpha-D-galactopyranosyl diphosphate) analog (12) are described. The reported synthesis relies on the novel use of thiolpyridine to generate 12 which is a suitably protected intermediate for generating a UDP-thioGal derivative by reduction prior to enzyme transfer via beta-1,4-galactosyltransferase.

Abstract
The hydration behavior of a model compound for the amylopectin branch point, methyl 6'-alpha-maltosyl-alpha-maltotrioside, was investigated by combining molecular dynamics simulations in explicit water, 500 MHz NMR spectroscopy, including pulsed field gradient diffusion measurements, and exploratory multivariate data analysis. In comparison with results on a tetrasaccharide analogue, the study reveals that the conformational diversity of the three-bond alpha-(1-->6) linkage becomes quite limited in aqueous solution upon the addition of a fifth glucose residue that elongates the alpha-(1-->6) branch. This investigation reveals two plausible starch branch point structures, one that permits the formation of double helices and one that is adapted for interconnection of double helices. The apparent rigidity of the former is explained by the presence of water pockets/bridges in the vicinity of the branch point that lock the pentasaccharide structure into one conformational family that is able to accommodate the creation of the double-helical amylopectin structure.

Abstract
The branched pentasaccharide methyl 6'-alpha-maltosyl-alpha-maltotrioside was chemically synthesised and investigated as a primer for particulate starch synthase II (SSII) using starch granules prepared from the low-amylose pea mutant lam as the enzyme source. For chemical synthesis, the trichloroacetimidate activation method was used to synthesise methyl O-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-benzyl-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl)-(1-->4)-O-(2,3,6-tri-O-benzyl-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl)-(1-->6)-O-[(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-benzyl-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-->4)]-O-(2,3-di-O-benzyl-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl)-(1-->4)-2,3,6-tri-O-benzyl-alpha-D-glucopyranoside, which was then debenzylated to provide the desired branched pentasaccharide methyl 6'-alpha-maltosyl-alpha-maltotrioside as documented by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy. Using a large excess of the maltoside, the pentasaccharide was tested as a substrate for starch synthase II (SSII). Both of the non-reducing ends of methyl 6'-alpha-maltosyl-alpha-maltotrioside were extended equally resulting in two hexasaccharide products in nearly equal amounts. Thus, SSII catalyses an equimolar and non-processive elongation reaction of this substrate. Accordingly, the presence of the alpha-1,6 linkages does not dictate a specific structure of the pentasaccharide in which only one of the two non-reducing ends are available for extension.
