SYNTHESIS OF 2,6-DIDEOXY-6-THIO DERIVATIVES OF KDO

ABSTRACT Ammonium 2,3,6-trideoxy-2,6-epithio-D-manno-2-octenoate (8), ammonium 2,3,6-trideoxy-2,6-epithio-D-glycero-D-talo-octanoate (10a), ammonium 2,3,6-trideoxy-2,6-epithio-D-glycero-D-galacto-octanoate (10b) and ammonium 2,3,6-trideoxy-2,6-epithio-oxa-D-glycero-D-galacto-octanoate (13) have been synthesised as potential inhibitors of the enzyme CMP-KDO synthetase. The key step in the synthesis of 8 was the elimination of water from methyl 3,6-dideoxy-4,5:7,8-di-O-isopropylidene-6-thio-D-manno-2-octulosonate (4) using chlorodiphenylphosphine, imidazole and bromine to give the unsaturated methyl 2,3,6-trideoxy-2,6-epithio-4,5:7,8-di-O-isopropylidene-D-manno-2-octenoate (5). For the synthesis of 10a and 10b, zinc reduction of methyl 3,6-dideoxy-4,5:7,8-di-O-isopropylidene-6-S-(4-methoxybenzyl)-6-thio-2-O-(trichloro-tert-butoxycarbonyl)-D-manno-2-octenoate (2) gave an epimeric mixture of an α-hydroxyester 6 which was ring closed by in situ activation of the hydroxyl group using triphenylphosphine and tri-...
