Additive-assisted synthesis of α-Kdo glycosides with peracetylated glycosyl ynenoate as a donor

Abstract

A DMF-modulated glycosylation approach for the stereoselective synthesis of α-Kdo glycosides with readily accessible peracetylated Kdo ynenoate as a donor was described. By utilizing this approach, we completed the synthesis of various linkage types of Kdo–Kdo disaccharides and the α-Kdo-containing protected trisaccharide variant relevant to the lipopolysaccharide of Coxiella burnetii strain Nine Mile.
