- Large-scale synthesis of thio-glucose-conjugated chlorin E6 for photodynamic therapy
-
Chlorin e6 is a heterocycle exhibiting spectral absorption in the 600-700 nm wavelength range used for photodynamic therapy (PDT). Herein, a sugar-conjugated chlorin e6 derivative was synthesized on a large scale. An alkyl spacer was fabricated by controlling the alkoxylation conditions between the thio-sugar and chlorin e6 and thio-glucose-conjugated chlorin e6 was successfully synthesized.

- 8-Hydroxyquinoline glycoconjugates containing sulfur at the sugar anomeric position—synthesis and preliminary evaluation of their cytotoxicity
-
One of the main factors limiting the effectiveness of many drugs is the difficulty of their delivery to their target site in the cell and achieving the desired therapeutic dose. Moreover, the accumulation of the drug in healthy tissue can lead to serious side effects. The way to improve the selectivity of a drug to the cancer cells seems to be its conjugation with a sugar molecule, which should facilitate its selective transport through GLUT transporters (glucose transporters), whose overexpression is seen in some types of cancer. This was the idea behind the synthesis of 8-hydroxyquinoline (8-HQ) derivative glycoconjugates, for which 1-thiosugar derivatives were used as sugar moiety donors. It was expected that the introduction of a sulfur atom instead of an oxygen atom into the anomeric position of the sugar would increase the stability of the obtained glycoconjugates against untimely hydrolytic cleavage. The anticancer activity of new compounds was determined based on the results of the MTT cytotoxicity tests. Because of the assumption that the activity of this type of compounds was based on metal ion chelation, the effect of the addition of copper ions on cell proliferation was tested for some of them. It turned out that cancer cells treated with glycoconjugates in the presence of Cu2+ had a much slower growth rate compared to cells treated with free glycoconjugates in the absence of copper. The highest cytotoxic activity of the compounds was observed against the MCF-7 cell line.

- Combining Click Reactions for the One-Pot Synthesis of Modular Biomolecule Mimetics
-
Here, we report on the first combined one-pot use of the two so-called "click reactions": The thiol-ene coupling and the copper-catalyzed alkyne-azide cycloaddition. These reactions were employed in an alternating and one-pot fashion to combine appropriately functionalized monomeric carbohydrate building blocks to create mimics of trisaccharides and tetrasaccharides as single anomers, with only minimal purification necessary. The deprotected oligosaccharide mimics were found to bind both plant lectins and human galectin-3.

-
Radical initiation for the perfluoroalkylation reaction of sulfides has been performed using the complex [(TMEDA)I·I3] and visible light. This methodology bypasses the use of metal(organo)catalysts where the complex [(TMEDA)I·I3] acts as a good electron donor/reductant radical initiating agent. Biologically relevant sulfides are easily substituted with RF moieties employing a mild and environmentally benign radical strategy starting from readily available RFI.

- Stereoretentive palladium-catalyzed arylation, alkenylation, and alkynylation of 1-thiosugars and thiols using aminobiphenyl palladacycle precatalyst at room temperature
-
A general and efficient protocol for the palladium-catalyzed functionalization of mono- and polyglycosyl thiols by using the palladacycle precatalyst G3-XantPhos was developed. The C-S bond-forming reaction was achieved rapidly at room temperature with various functionalized (hetero)aryl-, alkenyl-, and alkynyl halides. The functional group tolerance on the electrophilic partner is typically high and anomer selectivities of thioglycosides are high in all cases studied. New sulfur nucleophiles such as thiophenols, alkythiols, and thioaminoacids (cysteine) were also successfully coupled to lead to the most general and practical method yet reported for the functionalization of thiols.

- Synthesis and characterization of novel cationic lipids derived from thio galactose
-
Two double chain cationic lipids QAS Cn -2-S (n = 12, 14) derived from thio galactose and carbamate-linkage tertiary amine were synthesized and their structures were confirmed by MS, TOF-MS, 1H NMR and 13C NMR. The QAS C12-2-S revealed superior surface activity compared with QAS C14-2-S with lower CMC and γCMC. Though Lipo C12-2-S displayed large average particle-size with high polydispersity, positive charged Lipo Cn -2-S can be combined with the negative charged DNA, also negatively stained TEM images confirmed the formation of vesicles. All the above prove that the Lipo Cn -2-S is helpful for gene transfection.

- Preparation and X-ray analysis of potassium (2,3-dichlorophenyl) glucosinolate
-
There has been much interest in obtaining crystals for crystallographic analysis of biologically active glucosinolates. Crystals of potassium (2,3-dichlorophenyl)glucosinolate were obtained as a dual solvate, containing one methanol and one ethanol molecule of crystallization, K+ C 13H14Cl2NO9S2 - CH3OH C2H5OH. The three-dimensional polymeric network consists of chains containing the potassium ions coordinated and bridged by sugar O atoms, which run parallel to the a axis and are further crosslinked through the sugar molecules. The channels of this network are occupied by the dichlorophenyl substituents and the ethanol and methanol solvent molecules. The structure of the S-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl- β-d-glucopyranosyl)-2,3-dichlorophenylacetothiohydroxymate, C 21H23Cl2NO10S, precursor has also been determined and the β-configuration and Z isomer of the thiohydroximate substituent is confirmed.

-
A straightforward chemical synthesis of lyso-lactosylceramide with the terminal galactose linked to glucose through a β-S-glycosidic bond is reported. The product is labeled on the amino-group with tetramethylrhodamine enabling its ultrasensitive detection in capillary electrophoresis using laser-induced fluorescence. The fluorescent product disaccharide is resistant to hydrolysis by glycosidases but is shown to remain as an acceptor substrate for glycosyltransferases for the conversion into the trisaccharides GM3 and Gb3.

- Efficient diverse approach for quinoxaline-derived glycosylated and morphinylated analogs
-
Sulfanyl-glycosides have been synthesized by reaction of 2,3-dimercaptoquinoxaline (1) with acetohalo sugars in presence of base to give the thioglycosides-derived quinoxalines 5-7 and 9. Similarly, the acyclic analogs 23-26 were prepared by coupling of 1 with different acyclo-alkylating agents. The preparation of 3-morpholinyl-quinoxalines 10 and 11 allowed the synthesis of 3-glycosylsulfanyl-2-morpholinyl-quinoxalines 12-14 and 17 as well as the acyclic analogs 27-29. Microwave irradiation of the reactants turned out to be preferred over the conventional method for achieving the synthetic goals. This study made an available venue to the synthesis of diverse quinoxaline derivatives.

- Design and synthesis of bis-biotin-containing reagents for applications utilizing monoclonal antibody-based pretargeting systems with streptavidin mutants
-
Previous studies have shown that pretargeting protocols, using cancer-targeting fusion proteins, composed of 4 anti-CD20 single chain Fv (scFv) fragments and streptavidin (scFv4-SAv), followed by a biotinylated dendrimeric N-acetyl-galactosamine blood clearing agent (CA), 1, then a radiolabeled DOTA-biotin derivative (a monobiotin), 3a, can provide effective therapy for lymphoma xenografts in mouse models. A shortcoming in this pretargeting system is that endogenous biotin may affect its efficacy in patients. To circumvent this potential problem, we investigated a pretargeting system that employs anti-CD20 scFv4-SAv mutant fusion proteins with radioiodinated bis-biotin derivatives. With that combination of reagents, good localization of the radiolabel to lymphoma tumor xenografts was obtained in the presence of endogenous biotin. However, the blood clearance reagents employed in the studies were ineffective, resulting in abnormally high levels of radioactivity in other tissues. Thus, in the present investigation a bis-biotin-trigalactose blood clearance reagent, 2, was designed, synthesized, and evaluated in vivo. Additionally, another DOTA-biotin derivative (a bis-biotin), 4a, was designed and synthesized, such that radiometals (e.g., 111In, 90Y, 177Lu) could be used in the pretargeting protocols employing scFv4-SAv mutant fusion proteins. Studies in mice demonstrated that the CA 2 was more effective than CA 1 at removing [125I]scFv4-SAv-S45A mutant fusion proteins from blood. Another in vivo study compared tumor targeting and normal tissue concentrations of the new reagents (2 and [111In]4b) with standard reagents (1 and [111In]3b) used in pretargeting protocols. The study showed that lymphoma xenografts could be targeted in the presence of endogenous biotin when anti-CD20 fusion proteins containing SAv mutants (scFv 4-SAv-S45A or scFv4-SAv-Y43A) were employed in combination with CA 2 and [111In]4b. Importantly, normal tissue concentrations of [111In]4b were similar to those obtained using the standard reagents (1 and [111In]3b), except that the blood and liver concentrations were slightly higher with the new reagents. While the reasons for the higher blood and liver concentrations are unknown, the differences in the galactose structures of the clearance agents 1 and 2 may play a role.

- One-pot synthesis of hyperbranched poly(amido amine) clicked with a sugar shell via Michael addition polymerization and thiol click reaction
-
This paper reports the production of glycopolymers via a simple and flexible method. A novel glycopolymer with a hyperbranched poly(amido amine) core and a sugar shell (HPAA-GLc) was synthesized by using thiol-ene click reaction via facile one-pot method. Hyperbranched poly(amido amine) with vinyl terminals was first synthesized by Michael addition polymerization of N,N′-methylene bisacrylamide (MBA) with 1-(2-aminoethyl) piperazine (AEPZ). Subsequently, thiol-ene click reaction between vinyl units of hyperbranched poly(amido amine) and thio-glucose was performed in situ. Based on the NMR result, all the vinyl groups reacted with thiol-glucose in 120 min. Strong photoluminescence emission was observed from the aqueous solution of HPAA-GLc.

- Synthesis of positional thiol analogs of β-D-galactopyranose
-
Approaches toward the synthesis of thio-β-D-galactose derivatives are described. These compounds were prepared from the parent carbohydrates: D-galactose, methyl β-D-galactoside and methyl β-D-glucoside, respectively. It was found that not only the strategies of protecting group introduction and selective deprotection, but also the choices of solvent and nucleophilic reagent concentration were crucial to allow the efficient introduction of sulfur at different positions of the galactose ring. The effects from the solvent, the nucleophilic reagent concentration, and the protecting group patterns have been investigated. The results clearly show that ester protecting groups play highly important roles for the synthesis of thio-containing carbohydrates, requiring nonpolar solvents to suppress the neighboring group participation. For the Lattrell-Dax (nitrite-mediated) inversion reaction, employed in the synthetic route to the 2-thio-β-D- galactoside, intramolecular nucleophilic attack, as well as stronger stereospecific ester activation, are necessary to overcome hindrance from 4,6-O-benzylidene protection.

- Synthesis of spacer-armed glucodendrimers based on the modification of poly(propylene imine) dendrimers
-
The use of preformed poly(propylene imine) dendrimers [DAB(Pa)x] with reactive primary amine end groups proved to be very useful for the construction of saccharide surfacecoated dendrimers. For this purpose, amide bonds were introduced by a reaction between the primary amine end groups of the dendrimers with N-succinimidyl-activated esters of spacer-armed acetyl-protected thioglucopyranoside units. The linear alkyl chain spacers between the dendrimer surface and the saccharide units was increased in length with 1, 5 and 10 carbon atoms. These spacer arms were introduced to determine the influence of local saccharide surface concentration variations on the dendrimer properties. After modification of the dendrimers with these saccharide units, the acetyl protecting groups were removed. Purification of these derivatives was accomplished by using dialysis either in water or in aqueous methanol. The solubility behavior of the resulting glucodendrimers proved to be strongly dependent on the hydrophobic part, i.e. the alkyl chain spacers in the molecule. Therefore, these nanosized multivalent structures, appropriate for studying carbohydrate-protein interactions, are also proposed useful for investigating amphiphilic properties.

-
Chloroethyl 1-thio-β-D-glycopyranosides of the D-galacto and D-gluco configurations 5a-5c were prepared by alkylation of the corresponding 1-thio-β-D-hexopyranoses 3a-3c with 1-bromo-2-chloroethane followed by deacetylation. The starting 1-thio-β-D-hexopyranoses were obtained from the acetylated glycopyranosyl halides via isothiouronium salts. It was demonstrated that the chloroethyl thioglycosides 5a-5c undergo hydrolysis in aqueous solutions to give the 2-hydroxyethyl thioglycosides 6a-6c and reducing hexoses and that this hydrolysis proceeds via episulfonium salts. The hydrolysis was monitored by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy. In 1% aqueous solutions of sodium carbonate containing phenol or aniline, the thioglycosides 5a-5c provide, in addition to the above hydrolysis products, also the phenoxyethyl and phenylaminoethyl thioglycosides 9a, 10a and 9b, 10b, respectively.

We describe the synthesis of N- and S-glycosides derived from D-galactopyranose in which the aglycon bears certain reactive groups.In a first series, the anomeric carbon is linked to an amino group that is acylated by a functionalized succinic acid chain.The terminal group of the aglycon moiety is a hydrazide function which can be converted by ultraviolet light irradiation into an azide and a nitrene.Altenatively, the terminal group is a diazoketone function which can be converted into a carbene, by ultraviolet light irradiation.A second series comprises glycosides of 1-thio-β-D-galactopyranose.The aglycon consists of a 6-carbon chain with a carboxylic end group.The latter has been converted into a hydrazide and diazoketone function.We show that the diazo group of the diazoketones (compounds 5 and 12) is susceptible to decomposition by ultraviolet irradiation, being nearly quantitatively decomposed after 3 minutes.These compounds add to a growing list of hexose derivatives which can be used in the field of photoaffinity-labeling of the sugar binding sites of certain lectins and of hexose transport systems, or to prepare modified proteins or ligands for affinity chromatography.

- INSULIN-LIKE, AND INSULIN-ANTAGONISTIC, CARBOHYDRATE DERIVATIVES. THE SYNTHESIS OF ARYL AND ARALKYL D-MANNOPYRANOSIDES AND 1-THIO-D-MANNOPYRANOSIDES
-
A number of novel, aryl and aralkyl D-mannopyranosides and 1-thio-D-mannopyranosides were synthesized for evaluation of insulin-like and insulin-antagonistic properties.The substituted-phenyl α-D-mannopyranosides were prepared by the general procedure of Helferich and Schmitz-Hillebrecht, the substituted-phenyl 1-thio-α-D-mannopyranosides by a method corresponding to the Michael synthesis of aromatic glycosides, and the aralkyl 1-thio-α-D-mannopyranosides by aralkylation of 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-1-thio-α-D-mannopyranose 15 and subsequent O-deacetylation.Compound (15) was obtained by basic cleavage of the amidino group in 2-S-(tetra)-O-acetyl-α-D-mannopyranosyl)-2-thiopseudourea hydrobromide, the product of the reaction of tetra-O-acetyl-α-D-mannosyl bromide with thiourea.Benzyl 1-thio-β-D-mannopyranoside, obtained by reaction of the sodium salt of 1-thio-β-D-mannopyranose with α-bromotoluene, and benzyl 1-thio-α-L-mannopyranoside were also synthesized, in order to asses the stereospecificity of the biological activites measured.

- Synthesis of glucosinolates
-
A high yielding synthesis of 2-phenethylglucosinolate is described. The method should also be directly applicable to most (if not all) other glucosinolates.
