Abstract
The first total syntheses of cyclic depsipeptides colletopeptide A and colletotrichamide A, have been accomplished. The key advanced intermediate, a cyclic tridepsipeptide derivative, was constructed using a sequence of transformations that features asymmetric Brown crotylation, cross metathesis, Yamaguchi esterification, ozonolysis, and macrolactamization. A late-stage incorporation of the mannose fragment completed the synthesis of colletotrichamide A, and the desilylation of the common intermediate gave rise to colletopeptide A, which led to unambiguous confirmation of the absolute stereochemistry of the aforementioned natural products.

Abstract
Substrate side chain conformation impacts reactivity during glycosylation and glycoside hydrolysis and is restricted by many glycosidases and glycosyltransferases during catalysis. We show that the side chains of gluco and manno iminosugars can be restricted to predominant conformations by strategic installation of a methyl group. Glycosidase inhibition studies reveal that iminosugars with the gauche,gauche side chain conformations are 6- to 10-fold more potent than isosteric compounds with the gauche,trans conformation; a manno-configured iminosugar with the gauche,gauche conformation is a 27-fold better inhibitor than 1-deoxymannojirimycin. The results are discussed in terms of the energetic benefits of preorganization, particularly when in synergy with favorable hydrophobic interactions. The demonstration that inhibitor side chain preorganization can favorably impact glycosidase inhibition paves the way for improved inhibitor design through conformational preorganization.

Abstract
The reaction of a series of anomeric thioglycosides with various glycosyl acceptors and N-iodosuccinimide/catalytic triflic acid was investigated with respect to reactivity and anomeric selectivity. In general, β-configured donors were found to give a more β-selective reaction outcome compared to their α-configured counterparts. The relative reactivity of various thioglycosides was measured through competition experiments, and the following order was established: phenyl, tolyl, methyl, ethyl, isopropyl, and 1-adamantyl.

Abstract
A method for direct, highly stereoselective synthesis of glycans containing β-linked d-mannosaminuronic acid (ManNAcA) residues is reported herein, among which is the capsular polysaccharide of Staphylococcus aureus type 8. Previous chemical syntheses of this glycan relied on indirect methods comprising glucosylation followed by a multistep epimerization and oxidation sequence. The high β-stereocontrol with direct glycosidation of 3-O-picoloylated ManNAcA donors was achieved using the H-bond-mediated aglycone delivery (HAD) reaction. A method to achieve complete α-ManNAcA stereoselectivity with 3-O-benzoylated donors is also reported.

Abstract
Heparin and heparan sulfate are members of the glycosaminoglycan family that are involved in a multitude of biological processes. The great interests in the anticoagulant properties of heparin have stimulated major advances in synthetic strategies toward clinically effective analogues, as demonstrated importantly by the approval of the fully synthetic pentasaccharide fragment, termed fondaparinux (Arixtra®), of the heparin macromolecule for treatment of deep-vein thrombosis. Given the highly complex nature of heparin and heparan sulfate, the chemical synthesis of their components is a challenging endeavor. In the past decade, multiple approaches have been developed to improve the overall synthetic efficiency. New strategies have emerged that can generate libraries of oligosaccharide components of heparin and heparan sulfate. This article discusses recent developments in the assembly of heparin and heparan sulfate oligosaccharides and the associated challenges in their synthesis.

The stereocontrol of glycosylations was achieved by means of the H-bond-mediated aglycone delivery (HAD). The method was utilized for the synthesis of a tetrasaccharide linked viaβ-(1 → 3)-mannuronic linkages. We have also investigated 3,6-lactonized glycosyl donors that provided moderate to high β-manno stereoselectivity in glycosylations. A method to achieve complete α-manno stereoselectivity with mannuronic acid donors equipped with 3-O-benzoyl group is also reported.

Abstract
The ocean supplies abundant active compounds, including small organic molecules,
proteins, lipids, and carbohydrates, with diverse biological functions. The high-value
transformation of marine carbohydrates primarily refers to their pharmaceutical, food, and
cosmetic applications. However, it is still a big challenge to obtain these marine carbohydrates
in well-defined structures. Synthesis is a powerful approach to access marine oligosaccharides,
polysaccharide derivatives, and glycomimetics. In this review, we focus on the
chemical synthesis of marine acidic carbohydrates with uronic acid building blocks such as
alginate, and glycosaminoglycans. Regioselective sulfation using a chemical approach is also
highlighted in the synthesis of marine oligosaccharides, as well as the multivalent glycodendrimers
and glycopolymers for achieving specific functions. This review summarizes recent
advances in the synthesis of marine acidic carbohydrates, as well as their preliminary structure activity relationship
(SAR) studies, which establishes a foundation for the development of novel marine carbohydrate-based drugs and
functional reagents.

Abstract
Chemical synthesis is one of the practical approaches to access carbohydrate-based natural products and their derivatives with high quality and in a large quantity. However, stereoselectivity during the glycosylation reaction is the main challenge because the reaction can generate both α- and β-glycosides. The main focus of the present article is the concept of recent mechanistic studies that have applied statistical analysis and quantitation for defining stereoselective changes during the reaction process. Based on experimental evidence, a detailed discussion associated with the mechanism and degree of influence affecting the stereoselective outcome of glycosylation is included.

Abstract
The secondary cell wall polysaccharide (SCWP) of Bacillus anthracis plays a key role in the organization of the cell envelope of vegetative cells and is intimately involved in host-guest interactions. Genetic studies have indicated that it anchors S-layer and S-layer-associated proteins, which are involved in multiple vital biological functions, to the cell surface of B. anthracis. Phenotypic observations indicate that specific functional groups of the terminal unit of SCWP, including 4,6- O-pyruvyl ketal and acetyl esters, are important for binding of these proteins. These observations are based on genetic manipulations and have not been corroborated by direct binding studies. To address this issue, a synthetic strategy was developed that could provide a range of pyruvylated oligosaccharides derived from B. anthracis SCWP bearing base-labile acetyl esters and free amino groups. The resulting oligosaccharides were used in binding studies with a panel of S-layer and S-layer-associated proteins, which identified structural features of SCWP important for binding. A single pyruvylated ManNAc monosaccharide exhibited strong binding to all proteins, making it a promising structure for S-layer protein manipulation. The acetyl esters and free amine of SCWP did not significantly impact binding, and this observation is contrary to a proposed model in which SCWP acetylation is a prerequisite for association of some but not all S-layer and S-layer-associated proteins.

Abstract
Glycosylations of 4,6-tethered glucosazide donors with a panel of model acceptors revealed the effect of acceptor nucleophilicity on the stereoselectivity of these donors. The differences in reactivity among the donors were evaluated in competitive glycosylation reactions, and their relative reactivities were found to be reflected in the stereoselectivity in glycosylations with a set of fluorinated alcohols as well as carbohydrate acceptors. We found that the 2-azido-2-deoxy moiety is more β-directing than its C-2-O-benzyl counterpart, as a consequence of increased destabilization of anomeric charge development by the electron-withdrawing azide. Additional disarming groups further decreased the α-selectivity of the studied donors, whereas substitution of the 4,6-benzylidene acetal with a 4,6-di-tert-butyl silylidene led to a slight increase in α-selectivity. The C-2-dinitropyridone group was also explored as an alternative for the nonparticipating azide group, but this protecting group significantly increased β-selectivity. All studied donors exhibited the same acceptor-dependent selectivity trend, and good α-selectivity could be obtained with the weakest acceptors and most reactive donors.

Abstract
A set of model nucleophiles of gradually changing nucleophilicity is used to probe the glycosylation reaction mechanism. Glycosylations of ethanol-based acceptors, bearing varying amounts of fluorine atoms, report on the dependency of the stereochemistry in condensation reactions on the nucleophilicity of the acceptor. Three different glycosylation systems were scrutinized, that differ in the reaction mechanism, that - putatively - prevails during the coupling reaction. It is revealed that the stereoselectivity in glycosylations of benzylidene protected glucose donors are very susceptible to acceptor nucleophilicity whereas condensations of benzylidene mannose and mannuronic acid donors represent more robust glycosylation systems in terms of diastereoselectivity. The change in stereoselectivity with decreasing acceptor nucleophilicity is related to a change in reaction mechanism shifting from the SN2 side to the SN1 side of the reactivity spectrum. Carbohydrate acceptors are examined and the reactivity-selectivity profile of these nucleophiles mirrored those of the model acceptors studied. The set of model ethanol acceptors thus provides a simple and effective "toolbox" to investigate glycosylation reaction mechanisms and report on the robustness of glycosylation protocols.

Abstract
The synthesis of complex oligosaccharides is often hindered by a lack of knowledge on the reactivity and selectivity of their constituent building blocks. We investigated the reactivity and selectivity of 2-azidofucosyl (FucN3) donors, valuable synthons in the synthesis of 2-acetamido-2-deoxyfucose (FucNAc) containing oligosaccharides. Six FucN3 donors, bearing benzyl, benzoyl, or tert-butyldimethylsilyl protecting groups at the C3-O and C4-O positions, were synthesized, and their reactivity was assessed in a series of glycosylations using acceptors of varying nucleophilicity and size. It was found that more reactive nucleophiles and electron-withdrawing benzoyl groups on the donor favor the formation of β-glycosides, while poorly reactive nucleophiles and electron-donating protecting groups on the donor favor α-glycosidic bond formation. Low-temperature NMR activation studies of Bn- and Bz-protected donors revealed the formation of covalent FucN3 triflates and oxosulfonium triflates. From these results, a mechanistic explanation is offered in which more reactive acceptors preferentially react via an SN2-like pathway, while less reactive acceptors react via an SN1-like pathway. The knowledge obtained in this reactivity study was then applied in the construction of α-FucN3 linkages relevant to bacterial saccharides. Finally, a modular synthesis of the Staphylococcus aureus type 5 capsular polysaccharide repeating unit, a trisaccharide consisting of two FucNAc units, is described.

Abstract
The chemical synthesis of an orthogonally protected trisaccharide derived from the polysaccharide of Staphylococcus aureus Type 5, which is an attractive candidate for the development of immunotherapies, is described. The challenging α-fucosylation and β-mannosylation are addressed through the careful choice of protecting groups. Lactamization of a β-D-ManpNAcA moiety during deprotection was avoided by a late stage oxidation approach. Versatility of the trisaccharide was demonstrated by its transformation into a spacer-containing repeating unit suitable for immunological investigations.

Abstract
![]()
The endotoxic portion of lipopolysaccharide
(LPS), a glycophospholipid
Lipid A, initiates the activation of the Toll-like Receptor 4 (TLR4)–myeloid
differentiation factor 2 (MD-2) complex, which results in pro-inflammatory
immune signaling. To unveil the structural requirements for TLR4·MD-2-specific
ligands, we have developed conformationally restricted Lipid A mimetics
wherein the flexible βGlcN(1→6)GlcN backbone of Lipid
A is exchanged for a rigid trehalose-like αGlcN(1↔1)αMan scaffold
resembling the molecular shape of TLR4·MD-2-bound E.
coli Lipid A disclosed in the X-ray structure. A convergent
synthetic route toward orthogonally protected αGlcN(1↔1)αMan
disaccharide has been elaborated. The α,α-(1↔1)
linkage was attained by the glycosylation of 2-N-carbamate-protected
α-GlcN-lactol with N-phenyl-trifluoroacetimidate
of 2-O-methylated mannose. Regioselective acylation
with (R)-3-acyloxyacyl fatty acids and successive
phosphorylation followed by global deprotection afforded bis- and
monophosphorylated hexaacylated Lipid A mimetics. αGlcN(1↔1)αMan-based
Lipid A mimetics (α,α-GM-LAM) induced potent activation
of NF-κB signaling in hTLR4/hMD-2/CD14-transfected HEK293 cells
and robust LPS-like cytokines expression in macrophages and dendritic
cells. Thus, restricting the conformational flexibility of Lipid A
by fixing the molecular shape of its carbohydrate backbone in the
“agonistic” conformation attained by a rigid αGlcN(1↔1)αMan scaffold
represents
an efficient approach toward powerful and adjustable TLR4 activation.
