Abstract
For the purpose of examining the properties of the glycosidic ester linkage of sugars to amino acids, N-acetyl-1-O-aminoacyl-D-glucosamines were synthesized. N-Acetyl-4,6-O-benzylidene-D-glucosamine was condensed with an equimolar amount of N-benzyloxycarbonyl amino acids by the dicyclohexylcarbodiimide method, followed by the hydrolytic and hydrogenolytic removal of the protecting groups. N-Acetyl-3-O-acetyl-D-glucosamine was also newly prepared as a contrast compound.
