Abstract
Carbohydrates are called the third chain of life. Carbohydrates participate in many important biochemical functions in living species, and the biological information carried by them is several orders of magnitude larger than that of nucleic acids and proteins. However, due to the intrinsic complexity and heterogeneity of carbohydrate structures, furnishing pure and structurally well-defined glycans for functional studies is a formidable task, especially for homogeneous large-size glycans. To address this issue, we have developed a donor preactivation-based one-pot glycosylation strategy enabling multiple sequential glycosylations in a single reaction vessel.The donor preactivation-based one-pot glycosylation refers to the strategy in which the glycosyl donor is activated in the absence of a glycosyl acceptor to generate a reactive intermediate. Subsequently, the glycosyl acceptor with the same anomeric leaving group is added, leading to a glycosyl coupling reaction, which is then iterated to rapidly achieve the desired glycan in the same reactor. The advantages of this strategy include the following: (1) unique chemoselectivity is obtained after preactivation; (2) it is independent of the reactivity of glycosyl donors; (3) multiple-step glycosylations are enabled without the need for intermediate purification; (4) only stoichiometric building blocks are required without complex protecting group manipulations. Using this protocol, a range of glycans including tumor-associated carbohydrate antigens, various glycosaminoglycans, complex N-glycans, and diverse bacterial glycans have been synthesized manually. Gratifyingly, the synthesis of mycobacterial arabinogalactan containing 92 monosaccharide units has been achieved, which created a precedent in the field of polysaccharide synthesis. Recently, the synthesis of a highly branched arabinogalactan from traditional Chinese medicine featuring 140 monosaccharide units has been also accomplished to evaluate its anti-pancreatic-cancer activity. In the spirit of green and sustainable chemistry, this strategy can also be applied to light-driven glycosylation reactions, where either UV or visible light can be used for the activation of glycosyl donors.Automated synthesis is an advanced approach to the construction of complex glycans. Based on the two preactivation modes (general promoter activation mode and light-induced activation mode), a universal and highly efficient automated solution-phase synthesizer was further developed to drive glycan assembly from manual to automated synthesis. Using this synthesizer, a library of oligosaccharides covering various glycoforms and glycosidic linkages was assembled rapidly, either in a general promoter-activation mode or in a light-induced-activation mode. The automated synthesis of a fully protected fondaparinux pentasaccharide was realized on a gram scale. Furthermore, the automated synthesis of large-size polysaccharides was performed, allowing the assembly of arabinans up to an astonishing 1080-mer using the automated multiplicative synthesis strategy, taking glycan synthesis to a new height far beyond the synthesis of nucleic acids (up to 200-mer) and proteins (up to 472-mer).

Semisynthetic Glycoconjugate Vaccine Candidates against Escherichia coli O25B Induce Functional IgG Antibodies in Mice. JACS AU 2022; 2:2135-2151.

Abstract
Extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli (ExPEC) is a major health concern due to emerging antibiotic resistance. Along with O1A, O2, and O6A, E. coli O25B is a major serotype within the ExPEC group, which expresses a unique O-antigen. Clinical studies with a glycoconjugate vaccine of the above-mentioned O-types revealed O25B as the least immunogenic component, inducing relatively weak IgG titers. To evaluate the immunological properties of semisynthetic glycoconjugate vaccine candidates against E. coli O25B, we here report the chemical synthesis of an initial set of five O25B glycan antigens differing in length, from one to three repeat units, and frameshifts of the repeat unit. The oligosaccharide antigens were conjugated to the carrier protein CRM197. The resulting semisynthetic glycoconjugates induced functional IgG antibodies in mice with opsonophagocytic activity against E. coli O25B. Three of the oligosaccharide-CRM197 conjugates elicited functional IgGs in the same order of magnitude as a conventional CRM197 glycoconjugate prepared with native O25B O-antigen and therefore represent promising vaccine candidates for further investigation. Binding studies with two monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) revealed nanomolar anti-O25B IgG responses with nanomolar K D values and with varying binding epitopes. The immunogenicity and mAb binding data now allow for the rational design of additional synthetic antigens for future preclinical studies, with expected further improvements in the functional antibody responses. Moreover, acetylation of a rhamnose residue was shown to be likely dispensable for immunogenicity, as a deacylated antigen was able to elicit strong functional IgG responses. Our findings strongly support the feasibility of a semisynthetic glycoconjugate vaccine against E. coli O25B.

Abstract
Chemical synthesis is a powerful tool to access homogeneous complex glycans, which relies on protecting group (PG) chemistry. However, the overall efficiency of chemical glycan assembly is still low when compared to oligonucleotide or oligopeptide synthesis. There have been many contributions giving rise to collective improvement in carbohydrate synthesis that includes PG manipulation and stereoselective glycoside formation and some of this chemistry has been transferred to the solid phase or adapted for programmable one pot synthesis approaches. However, after all glycoside bond formation reactions are completed, the global deprotection (GD) required to give the desired target OS can be challenging. Difficulties observed in the removal of permanent PGs to release the desired glycans can be due to the number and diversity of PGs present in the protected OSs, nature and structural complexity of glycans, etc. Here, we have reviewed the difficulties associated with the removal of PGs from densely protected OSs to obtain their free glycans. In particularly, this review focuses on the challenges associated with hydrogenolysis of benzyl groups, saponification of esters and functional group interconversion such as oxidation/reduction that are commonly performed in GD stage. More generally, problems observed in the removal of permanent PGs is reviewed herein, including benzyl, acyl (levulinoyl, acetyl), N-trichloroacetyl, N-2,2,2-trichloroethoxycarbonyl, N-phthaloyl etc. from a number of fully protected OSs to release the free sugar, that have been previously reported in the literature.

Abstract
The reverse orthogonal strategy was invented in 2011 in an attempt to address drawbacks of other strategies for glycan assembly. Different from the classical orthogonal approach that relies on the orthogonality of leaving groups, the reverse strategy is based on orthogonal protecting groups that could be removed during the glycosylation step. This strategy remained largely unexplored due to only one combination of orthogonal protecting groups that would fit into this concept. Reported herein are new orthogonal combinations of leaving and protecting groups that help to streamline the glycan assembly. Also reported is further refinement of the previously reported reaction conditions.

Abstract
Carbohydrates involving glycoconjugates play a pivotal role in many life processes. Better understanding toward glycobiological events including the structure–function relationship of these biomolecules and for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes including tailor-made vaccine development and synthesis of structurally well-defined oligosaccharides (OS) become important. Efficient chemical glycosylation in high yield and stereoselectivity is however challenging and depends on the fine tuning of a protection profile to get matching glycosyl donor–acceptor reactivity along with proper use of other important external factors like catalyst, solvent, temperature, activator, and additive. So far, many glycosylation methods have been reported including several reviews also. In the present review, we will concentrate our discussion on the recent trend on α- and β-selective glycosylation reactions reported during the past decade.

Abstract
A new strategy for the activation of glycosyl halide donors to be utilized in glycosylation reactions is presented, utilizing the ferrocenium (Fc) complexes [FcB(OH)2]SbF6 and FcBF4 as promoters. The scope of the new system has been investigated using glycosyl chloride and glycosyl fluoride donors in combination with common glycosyl acceptors, such as protected glucose. The corresponding glycosylation products were formed in 95 to 10% isolated yields with α/β ratios ranging from 1/1 to β only (2 to 14 h reaction time at room temperature, 40 to 100% ferrocenium promoter load). Ferrocenium complexes as a new, tunable platform for O-glycosylation reactions are introduced.![]()

Abstract
The roles played by the gut microbiome in human health are increasingly recognized, and the prevalence of specific microorganisms has been correlated with different diseases. For example, blooms of the Gram-positive bacterium Ruminococcus gnavus have been correlated with inflammatory bowel disease, and recently a polysaccharide produced by this organism was shown to stimulate release of inflammatory cytokines. This stimulation was proposed to signal through toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4). We have synthesized the pentasaccharide repeating unit of this polysaccharide and showed that it stimulates TNF-α and IL-6 release from bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BMDCs) in a TLR4-dependent manner. A related glycan does not stimulate significant cytokine release, demonstrating TLR4 selectivity in glycan recognition. The roles played by the gut microbiome in human health are increasingly recognized, and the prevalence of specific microorganisms has been correlated with different diseases.![]()

Abstract
Carbohydrates are a large class of natural products that play key roles in a number of biological processes such as in cellular communication or disease progression. Carbohydrates are also used as vaccines and pharmaceuticals. Their synthesis through glycosylation reactions is challenging, and often stoichiometric amounts of promoters are required. Transition metal catalyzed glycosylation reactions are far less common, but can have advantages with respect to reaction conditions and selectivity. The review intends to approach the topic from the catalysis and carbohydrate perspective to encourage researchers from both the fields to perform research in the area. The article covers the basics in glycosylation and catalysis chemistry. The catalysts for the reaction can be roughly divided into two groups. In one group, the catalysts serve as Lewis acids. In the other group, the catalysts play a higher sophisticated role, are involved in all elementary steps of the mechanism and remain coordinated to the substrate throughout the whole catalytic cycle. Based on selected examples, the main trends in transition metal catalyzed glycosylation reactions are explained. Lewis acid catalysts tend to require a somewhat higher catalyst load compared to other organometallic catalysts. The reaction conditions such as the temperature and time depend in many cases on the leaving group employed. An outlook is also presented. The article is not meant to be comprehensive; it outlines the most common transition metal catalyzed processes with the intention to bring the catalysis and carbohydrate communities together and to inspire research activities in both areas.

Abstract
Owing to the environmental concern worldwide and also due to cost, time and labour issues, use of one-pot reactions [domino/cascade/tandem/multi-component (MC) or sequential] has gained much attention among the scientific and industrial communities for the generation of compound libraries having different scaffolds. Inclusion of sugars in such compounds is expected to increase the pharmacological efficacy because of the possibility of better interactions with the receptors of such unnatural glycoconjugates. In many of the one-pot transformations, the presence of a metal salt/complex can improve the reaction/change the course of reaction with remarkable increase in chemo-/regio-/stereo-selectivity. On the other hand because of the importance of natural polymeric glycoconjugates in life processes, the development and efficient synthesis of related oligosaccharides, particularly utilising one-pot MC-glycosylation techniques are necessary. The present review is an endeavour to discuss one-pot transformations involving carbohydrates catalysed by a metal salt/complex.

Abstract
Abstract
Chemical glycosylations occupy a central importance to synthesize tailor-made oligo- and polysaccharides of functional importance. Generation of the oxocarbenium ion or the glycosyl cation is the method of choice in order to form the glycosidic bond interconnecting a glycosyl moiety with a glycosyl/aglycosyl moiety. A number of elegant methods have been devised that allow the glycosyl cation formation in a fairly stream-lined manner to a large extent. The latent-active method provides a powerful approach in the protecting group controlled glycosylations. In this context, allyl glycosides have been developed to meet the requirement of latent-active reactivities under appropriate glycosylation conditions. Radical halogenation provides a newer route of activation of allyl glycosides to an activated allylic glycoside. Such an allylic halide activation subjects the glycoside reactive under acid catalysis, leading to the conversion to a glycosyl cation and subsequent glycosylation with a number of acceptors. The complete anomeric selectivity favoring the 1,2-trans-anomeric glycosides points to the possibility of a preferred conformation of the glycosyl cation. This article discusses about advancements in the selectivity of glycosylations, followed by delineating the allylic halogenation of allyl glycoside as a glycosylation method and demonstrates synthesis of a repertoire of di- and trisaccharides, including xylosides, with varied protecting groups.

An efficient and high yielding reaction for tandem opening of 4,6-O-benzylidene derivatives (gluco, galacto, manno, 2-phthalimido-2-deoxy glucosides) to their corresponding 6-O-acetyl derivatives has been established under metal free condition using 60% solution of aqueous acetic acid (v/v). The reaction is equally pertinent for large scale synthesis and also for disaccharide glycosides. Its application for the construction of a building block towards synthesis of a trisaccharide part related to Pseudomonas aeruginosa utilizing one-pot glycosylation reactions has also been described.

Abstract
Common carbohydrate protecting group reactions under continuous flow processes are reported in the context of producing partially-protected glucose building blocks from levoglucosan. Benzyl ether protection was demonstrated without the use of NaH using barium oxide, which, however, pointed to the need for forms of this catalyst not as susceptible to close packing under flow. Acylation conditions were developed under continuous flow in acetonitrile and avoiding pyridine. Ring-opening the derivatized levoglucosan with propanethiol was also demonstrated producing S-alkyl 2,4-di-O-benzyl-glucopyranoside building block in 2 rather than 12 steps in increased overall yield.
