Mild and Highly αâSelective OâSialylation Method Based on PreâActivation: Access to Gangliosides Hpâs1, DSGâA, and Their Analogues
An efficient method for αâselective sialylation, based on a preâactivated 5âN,4âOâcarbamate thiosialoside donor using pâTolSCl/AgOTf as reagents, is described. The strategy is further expanded to a range of sugars. A mechanism is proposed and validated using experimental evidence. The utility of the method is demonstrated by the total synthesis of gangliosidesâ
Hpâs1 1, DSGâA 2 and their analogues, 2âaâ2âc. The neuritogenic activity of the final compounds is determined on SHâSY5Y cells
