糖氨基酸(sugar amino acids, SAAs)是一类同时含有氨基和羧基的糖类衍生物, 具有糖和氨基酸的结构特征和化学反应特性, 常作为多功能合成砌块用于组合化学的研究、糖模拟物和多肽模拟物的构建等. 因此, 该类化合物的设计与合成受到国内外化学家的持续关注. 在本文中, 我们发展了一种简单、高效的合成新型糖氨基酸的方法, 从廉价易得的3,4,6-O-三乙酰基-D-葡萄糖烯和3,4,6-O-三乙酰基-D-半乳糖烯出发, 在硝酸铈铵(CAN)的作用下通过一步自由基加成反应分别得到2-C-二羧酸酯类化合物gluco-2galacto-2, 再经过脱羧、脱乙酰、碘代、叠氮化钠取代和一锅法还原氨化反应, 以最短直线步骤6步实现了糖氨基酸gluco-7(总收率34%)和galacto-7(总收率19%)的合成. 所有合成的化合物均经过IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR和HRMS的表征.

Sugar amino acids (SAAs) are carbohydrate derivatives bearing both amino and carboxylic acid functional groups. SAAs represent an important class of multifunctional building blocks, which are amenable to serve as glycomimetics or peptidomimetics with well-defined structures and useful properties. Because SAAs exist in nature in many forms with various biological activities, recently, many unnatural SAAs, as the demand for finding new molecules to discover new drugs and new materials, have been designed and synthesized by a number of research groups. In this paper, we have developed a convenient method for the synthesis of novel SAAs gluco-7 and galacto-7 for the first time. The structure of gluco-7 was similar to the natural SAA glucosaminuronic acid that was a component of many typical bacterial cell walls and could be used for the preparation of type D flu vaccine; while galacto-7 was similar to the natural SAA galactosaminuronic acid that was one of bacterial Vi-antigen components of Escherichia coli. Starting from unexpensive and commercially available 3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-D-glucal and 3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-D-galactal, two novel SAAs gluco-7 and galacto-7 were achieved in the linear 6 steps with 34% overall yield and 19% overall yield, respectively. The key reactions included radical addition, decarboxylation, iodine generation reaction, azide reaction and reductive amination reaction. The crucial step was the synthesis of the target compound gluco-7 from gluco-6. By using method A, the target compound gluco-7 was obtained in 4 steps with 63% overall yield. To optimize the transformation from gluco-6 to gluco-7, method B was developed to generate gluco-7 by using one-pot reaction successfully with 76% yield only in one step. It proved that method B was superior to method A with shorter steps and higher yields. All the new compounds were characterized by IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and HRMS data. Study on the synthesis and biological evaluation of linear and cyclic oligomers derived from gluco-7 and galacto-7 are currently in progress.
