Large‐Scale Chemoenzymatic Synthesis of a Glycophorin A Tetrasaccharide Motif and Its Analogues

Asian Journal of Organic Chemistry, EarlyView.
A large‐scale chemoenzymatic method was developed to synthesize natural and modified analogues of the Glycophorin A tetrasaccharide with either C9 or C5 terminal α‐2,3‐sialic acid variants. Selective α‐2,6‐sialylation of galactosamine was achieved by maintaining acetylation of the galactose during the course of enzymatic reactions. The products can aid
