Abstract
A synthesis of alpha-series ganglioside GM1alpha (III(6)Neu5AcGgOse4Cer) containing C20-sphingosine(d20:1) is described. Glycosylation of 2-(trimethylsilyl)ethyl 2,3,6-tri-O-benzyl-beta-D-galactopyranosyl-(1-->4)-2,3,6-tri-O-benzyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside with the glucosamine donor ethyl 3-O-acetyl-2-deoxy-4,6-O-[(4-methoxyphenyl)methylene]-2-phthalimido-1-thio-beta-D-glucopyranoside furnished a beta-(1-->4)-linked trisaccharide. Reductive cleavage of the p-methoxybenzylidene group followed by intramolecular inversion of its triflate afforded the desired trisaccharide, which was transformed into a trisaccharide acceptor via removal of the phthaloyl and O-acetyl groups followed by N-acetylation. A tetrasaccharide acceptor was obtained by glycosylation of the trisaccharide acceptor with dodecyl 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-benzoyl-1-thio-beta-D-galactopyranoside, followed by removal of the p-methoxybenzyl group. Coupling of the tetrasaccharide acceptor with ethyl (methyl 4,7,8,9-tetra-O-acetyl-3,5-dideoxy-1-thio-5-trichloroacetamido-D-glycero-D-galacto-2-nonulopyranosid)onate and subsequent radical reduction gave the desired GM1alpha saccharide derivative, which was coupled with (2S,3R,4E)-2-azido-3-O-benzoyl-4-eicosene-1,3-diol after conversion into the imidate.
