Abstract
Microbial-derived natural products remain a major source of structurally diverse bioactive compounds and chemical scaffolds that have the potential as new therapeutics to target drug-resistant pathogens and cancers. In particular, genome mining has revealed the vast number of cryptic or low-yield biosynthetic gene clusters in the genus Streptomyces. However, low natural product yields-improvements to which have been hindered by the lack of high throughput methods-have slowed the discovery and development of many potential therapeutics. Here, we describe our efforts to improve yields of landomycins-angucycline family polyketides under investigation as cancer therapeutics-by a genetically modified Streptomyces cyanogenus 136. After simplifying the extraction process from S. cyanogenus cultures, we identified a wavelength at which the major landomycin products are absorbed in culture extracts, which we used to systematically explore culture medium compositions to improve total landomycin titers. Through correlational analysis, we simplified the culture optimization process by identifying an alternative wavelength at which culture supernatants absorb yet is representative of total landomycin titers. Using the subsequently improved sample throughput, we explored landomycin production during the culturing process to further increase landomycin yield and reduce culture time. Testing the antimicrobial activity of the isolated landomycins, we report broad inhibition of Gram-positive bacteria, inhibition of fungi by landomycinone, and broad landomycin resistance by Gram-negative bacteria that is likely mediated by the exclusion of landomycins by the bacterial membrane. Finally, the anticancer activity of the isolated landomycins against A549 lung carcinoma cells agrees with previous reports on other cell lines that glycan chain length correlates with activity. Given the prevalence of natural products produced by Streptomyces, as well as the light-absorbing moieties common to bioactive natural products and their metabolic precursors, our method is relevant to improving the yields of other natural products of interest.

Abstract
LanK is a TetR type regulatory protein that coordinates the late steps of the biosynthesis of the landomycin family of antitumor angucyclic polyketides and their export from the cells of Streptomyces cyanogenus S136. We recently described the structure of LanK and showed that it is the carbohydrate portion of the landomycins that is responsible for abrogating the repressing effect of LanK on landomycin production and export. The effect has been established in a series of in vitro tests using synthetic analogs of the landomycin carbohydrate chains. Whether such synthetic compounds would function as effector molecules for LanK under in vivo conditions remained unknown. Furthermore, the location and identity of LanK operator sites within the lanK-lanJ intergenic region (lanKJp) was unknown. Here we report that methoxyphenyl analogs of tri- and hexasaccharide chains of landomycins cannot function as LanK ligands when applied externally to the reporter strain. The lability of these compounds to cellular media and/or their poor penetration into the cells could explain our observations. The LanK operator site has been mapped to a 14-bp region of lanKJp that includes a plausible -35 site upstream of the lanK start codon in a series of electrophoretic DNA mobility shift assays. This opens the door to studies of the DNA-LanK interaction at a single nucleotide resolution level.

Abstract
Borate esters have been applied widely as coupling partners in organic synthesis. However, the direct utilization of borate acceptors in O-glycosylation with glycal donors remains underexplored. Herein, we describe a novel O-glycosylation resulting in the formation of 2,3-unsaturated O-glycosides and 2-deoxy O-glycosides mediated by palladium and copper catalysis, respectively. This O-glycosylation method tolerated a broad scope of trialkyl/triaryl borates and various glycals with exclusive stereoselectivities in high yields. All the desired aliphatic/aromatic O-glycosides and 2-deoxy O-glycosides were generated successfully, without the hemiacetal byproducts and O→C rearrangement because of the nature of borate esters. The utility of this strategy was demonstrated by functionalizing the 2,3-unsaturated glycoside products to form saturated β-O-glycosides, 2,3-deoxy O-glycosides, and 2,3-epoxy O-glycosides.

Abstract
The development and application of the asymmetric synthesis of oligosaccharides from achiral starting materials is reviewed. This de novo asymmetric approach centers around the use of asymmetric catalysis for the synthesis of optically pure furan alcohols in conjunction with Achmatowicz oxidative rearrangement for the synthesis of various pyranones. In addition, the use of a diastereoselective palladium-catalyzed glycosylation and subsequent diastereoselective post-glycosylation transformation was used for the synthesis of oligosaccharides. The application of this approach to oligosaccharide synthesis is discussed.

Abstract
Anomeric stereocontrol is usually one of the major issues in the synthesis of complex carbohydrates, particularly those involving β-configured 2,6-dideoxyglycoside and d/l-rhamnoside moieties. Herein, we report that 2-(diphenylphosphinoyl)acetyl is highly effective as a remote stereodirecting group in the direct synthesis of these challenging β-glycosides under mild conditions. A deoxy-trisaccharide as a mimic of the sugar chain of landomycin E was prepared stereospecifically in high yield. The synthetic potential was also highlighted in the synthesis of Citrobacter freundii O-antigens composed of a [→4)-α-d-Manp-(1→3)-β-d-Rhap(1→4)-β-d-Rhap-(1→] repeating unit, wherein the convergent assembly up to a nonasaccharide was realized with a strongly β-directing trisaccharide donor. Variable-temperature NMR studies indicate the presence of intermolecular H-bonding between the donor and the bulky acceptor as direct spectral evidence in support of the concept of hydrogen-bond-mediated aglycone delivery.

Abstract
An expeditious method for the synthesis of monosaccharides and disaccharides possessing 3-oxo-glycal units is revealed. Several monosaccharides and disaccharide-derived glycals are converted to the corresponding hexenuloses in three steps involving halo-alkoxylation, dehydrohalogenation, and ketalyzation reactions. A number of 3-oxo-glycals are synthesized to show the methodology's importance and generality. Further, the protocol is successfully applied to synthesize a rare-sugar disaccharide donor unit present as part of the trisaccharide moiety in the reported natural product, versipelostatin.

Abstract
C-alkyl glycosides represent an attractive class of non-hydrolyzable carbohydrate mimetics which possess enormous potential as next-generation therapeutics. Methods for the direct stereoselective synthesis of C-alkyl glycosides with a broad substrate tolerance are limited, however. This is especially in the case of β-linked C-alkyl glycosides, where direct methods for synthesis from commonly available coupling partners remain limited. This account describes the evolution of our laboratory’s studies on glycosyl sulfonate chemistry from a method for the construction of simple β-linked 2-deoxy-sugars to a technology for the direct synthesis of β-linked acyl and homoacyl glycosides that can be elaborated into more complex structures.

Abstract
Previously, we demonstrated that glycosyl tosylates are effective for the synthesis of β-glycosides of gluco-configured 2-deoxy sugars. Here, we show the same sulfonate system can be used for the selective synthesis of α-glycosides containing the allo-configured 2-deoxy sugar digitoxose. As with previous work, optimal selectivity is obtained through matching the donor with the appropriate arylsulfonyl chloride promoter. The utility of this method is demonstrated through the synthesis of the α-linked digitoxose trisaccharide fragment of kijanimicin.

Abstract
While glycosyl triflates are frequently invoked as intermediates in many chemical glycosylation reactions, the chemistry of other glycosyl sulfonates remains comparatively underexplored. Given the reactivity of sulfonates can span several orders of magnitude, this represents an untapped resource for the development of stereoselective glycosylation reactions. This personal account describes our laboratories efforts to take advantage of this reactivity to develop β-specific glycosylation reactions. Initial investigations led to the development of 2-deoxy-sugar tosylates as highly selective donors for β-glycoside synthesis, an approach which has been used to great success by our group and others for the construction of deoxy-sugar oligosaccharides and natural products. Subsequent studies demonstrate that "matching" the reactivity of the sulfonate to that of the sugar donor leads to highly selective SN 2-glycosylations with a range of substrates.

Abstract
An automated continuous flow system capable of producing protected deoxy-sugar donors from commercial material is described. Four 2,6-dideoxy and two 3-amino-2,3,6-trideoxy sugars with orthogonal protecting groups were synthesized in 11-32 % overall yields in 74-131.5 minutes of total reaction time. Several of the reactions were able to be concatenated into a continuous process, avoiding the need for chromatographic purification of intermediates. The modular nature of the experimental setup allowed for reaction streams to be split into different lines for the parallel synthesis of multiple donors. Further, the continuous flow processes were fully automated and described through the design of an open-source Python-controlled automation platform.

Abstract
Carbamate-bearing carbohydrates contribute to the pharmacological properties of various natural glycosides. The catalytic site-selective carbamoylation of minimally protected pyranosides was achieved for the first time to bypass protection/deprotection sequences. 1-Carbamoylimidazoles were used as the carbamoylation reagents to circumvent the harmful and unstable phosgene and isocyanates. This borinic acid catalyzed transformation granted an expedient access to the tumor cell-binding carbamoylmannoside moiety of bleomycins and analogs in yields of 56% to 89%.

Abstract
Herein, we report the total synthesis of landomycins Q and R as well as the aglycone core, namely anhydrolandomycinone and a related core analogue. The synthesis features an acetate-assisted arylation method for construction of the hindered B-ring in the core component and a one-pot aromatization-deiodination-denbenzylation procedure to streamline the global functional and protecting group manuipulation. Subsequent cytotoxicity and antibacterial studies revealed that the landomycin R is a potential antibacterial agent against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.

Abstract
An efficient, modular continuous flow process towards accessing two orthogonally protected glycals is described with the development of reaction conditions for several common protecting group additions in flow, including the addition of benzyl, naphthylmethyl and tert-butyldimethylsilyl ethers. The process affords the desired target compounds in 57-74% overall yield in just 21-37 minutes of flow time. Furthermore, unlike batch conditions, the flow processes avoided the need for active cooling to prevent unwanted exotherms and required shorter reaction times.

Abstract
The first examples of iminosugar-type 2-deoxy(thio)glycoside mimetics are reported. The key step is the activation of a bicyclic iminoglycal carbamate to generate a highly reactive acyliminium cation. Cerium(IV) ammonium nitrate efficiently promoted the formation of 2-deoxy S-glycosides in the presence of thiols, probably by in situ generation of catalytic HNO3, with complete α-stereoselectivity. Cooperative phosphoric acid/Schreiner's thiourea organocatalysis proved better suited for generating 2-deoxy O-glycosides, significantly broadening the scope of the approach.
