They are of interest due to their remarkable biological properties including antibacterial, antitumor, antifungal and elicitor activities. They can be obtained from the aminoglucan chitosan by chemical or enzymatic degradation which obviously affords rather heterogenous mixtures. On the other hand, chemical synthesis provides pure compounds with defined sequences of GlcNAc and GlcN monomers. The synthesis of homo- and hetero-chitobioses and hetero-chitotetraoses is described in this thesis. Dimethylmaleoyl and phthaloyl groups were used for protection of the amines. The donor was activated as the trichloroacetimidate in order to form the β-linkages. Glycosylation in the presence of trimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate, followed by N- and O-deprotection furnished chitobioses and chitotetraoses in good yields.}, language = {en} } @article{YinLinker2011, author = {Yin, Jian and Linker, Torsten}, title = {Stereoselective diversity-oriented syntheses of functionalized saccharides from bicyclic carbohydrate 1,2-lactones}, series = {Tetrahedron}, volume = {67}, journal = {Tetrahedron}, number = {13}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Oxford}, issn = {0040-4020}, doi = {10.1016/j.tet.2011.01.069}, pages = {2447 -- 2461}, year = {2011}, abstract = {Bicyclic carbohydrate 1,2-lactones have been synthesized in only two steps and high yields by saponification and subsequent cyclization from known malonate addition products to glycals. The gluco-configured lactone serves as an important precursor for diversity-oriented syntheses. Thus, stereoselective opening of the lactone ring was realized with various nucleophiles in the presence of Sc(OTf)(3). This enabled the introduction of different substituents at the anomeric position, to afford a broad variety of 1-functionalized carbohydrates. On the other hand, stereoselective alpha-substitution of the gluco-configured lactone with different electrophiles and subsequent ring opening gives a collection of 2-functionalized saccharides. More than 30 products have been isolated in analytically pure form, and their configurations were unequivocally established by various NMR methods. Thus, carbohydrate 1,2-lactones are attractive precursors for the stereoselective synthesis of diverse saccharides.}, language = {en} } @article{VidadalaPimpalpalleLinkeretal.2011, author = {Vidadala, Srinivasa Rao and Pimpalpalle, Tukaram M. and Linker, Torsten and Hotha, Srinivas}, title = {Gold-Catalyzed reactions of 2-C-Branched carbohydrates mild glycosidations and selective anomerizations}, series = {European journal of organic chemistry}, journal = {European journal of organic chemistry}, number = {13}, publisher = {Wiley-Blackwell}, address = {Malden}, issn = {1434-193X}, doi = {10.1002/ejoc.201100134}, pages = {2426 -- 2430}, year = {2011}, abstract = {2-C-branched methyl glycosides react with various alcohols under gold catalysis to transglycosylated products.

Results BG decrease during HIIE was significantly smaller for B (p = 0.024) and tended to be smaller for A and C compared to CON.
