Abstract

An expeditious three-component, one-pot, sequential synthesis of a common block tetrasaccharide fragment Manp-(1→3)-Manp-(1→2)-Manp-(1→2)-Manp related to the pentasaccharide repeating unit of the O-antigen of Escherichia Coli O9, Klebsiella pneumonia O3, and Hafnia alvei PCM 1223 with minimal protecting group manipulation is reported.

Key words

three-component - one-pot - tetrasaccharide - Escherichia coli O9 - Klebsiella pneumonia O3

The reaction mixture was then cooled to –45 °C and stirred for 5 min before TMSOTf (20 μL, 0.1105 mmol) was injected. The temperature was then increased gradually to –10 °C and stirred for 20 min. After the donor 3 was consumed, the reaction temperature lowered to –45 °C and disaccharide acceptor 5 (107.1 mg, 0.1195 mmol) was added. Subsequently, a second portion of NMPTC (28.6 mg, 0.1212 mmol) and TMSOTf (22 μL, 0.1218 mmol) were added. The temperature was then increased gradually from –45 to –10 °C in 0.5 h and the reaction mixture was stirred at –10 °C for an additional 0.5 h. The reaction was quenched with Et3N (1 mL). The reaction mixture, after dilution with CH2Cl2 (10 mL), was filtered through a plug of Celite, and the bed was washed with CH2Cl2 (3 × 10 mL). The combined filtrate and washings was concentrated under reduced pressure and the crude mixture was directly purified by silica gel flash column chromatography (hexane–EtOAc, 4:1) to afford 2 (89.4 mg, 54%) as a glassy syrup.
