Operationally simple and efficient workup procedure for TBAF-mediated desilylation: Application to halichondrin synthesis
Kaburagi, Yosuke,Kishi, Yoshito
, p. 723 - 726 (2007)
An operationally simple and efficient workup method for tetrabutylammonium fluoride (TBAF)-mediated t-butyldimethylsilyl (TBS) deprotection has been developed. The procedure includes addition of a sulfonic acid resin and calcium carbonate, followed by filtration and evaporation. This method eliminates the tedious aqueous-phase extraction process to remove excess TBAF and materials derived from TBAF, thereby making the protocol highly amenable to multiple TBS deprotections. Its efficiency and usefulness were demonstrated by using the transformation of 1 a to 3a in the halichondrin synthesis.

1H NMR spectroscopy has been used to investigate the transfer of sialic acid from sialic acid donor molecules to acceptor molecules using the trans-sialidase from Typanosoma cruzi. It is clearly demonstrated that NMR spectroscopy is an efficien

We report the first asymmetric total synthesis and structural determination of calixanthomycin A. Taking advantage of a modular strategy, a concise approach was developed to assemble the hexacyclic skeleton with both enantiomers of the lactone A ring. Stereoselective glycosylation coupled the angular hexacyclic framework with a monosaccharide fragment to produce calixanthomycin A and its stereoisomers. This enable us to determine and assign the absolute configuration of C-25 (25S) and monosaccharide (derivative of l-glucose).

Rhizobia are soil bacteria that form important symbiotic associations with legumes, and rhizobial surface polysaccharides, such as K-antigen polysaccharide (KPS) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS), might be important for symbiosis. Previously, we obtained a mutant of Sinorhizobium fredii HH103, rkpA, that does not produce KPS, a homopolysaccharide of a pseudaminic acid derivative, but whose LPS electrophoretic profile was indistinguishable from that of the WT strain. We also previously demonstrated that the HH103 rkpLMNOPQ operon is responsible for 5-acetamido-3,5,7,9-tetradeoxy-7-(3-hydroxybutyramido)-L-glyc-ero-L-manno-nonulosonic acid [Pse5NAc7(3OHBu)] production and is involved in HH103 KPS and LPS biosynthesis and that an HH103 rkpM mutant cannot produce KPS and displays an altered LPS structure. Here, we analyzed the LPS structure of HH103 rkpA, focusing on the carbohydrate portion, and found that it contains a highly heterogeneous lipid A and a peculiar core oligosaccharide composed of an unusually high number of hexuronic acids containing b-configured Pse5NAc7(3OHBu). This pseudaminic acid derivative, in its a-configuration, was the only structural component of the S. fredii HH103 KPS and, to the best of our knowledge, has never been reported from any other rhizobial LPS. We also show that Pse5NAc7(3OHBu) is the complete or partial epitope for a mAb, NB6-228.22, that can recognize the HH103 LPS, but not those of most of the S. fredii strains tested here. We also show that the LPS from HH103 rkpM is identical to that of HH103 rkpA but devoid of any Pse5NAc7(3OHBu) residues. Notably, this rkpM mutant was severely impaired in symbiosis with its host, Macroptilium atropurpureum.
