Abstract
The synthesis of methyl 3-azido- and 3-amino-2,3-dideoxyhexopyranosiduronic acids and their methyl esters with the -alpha,beta-D-arabino-, -alpha,beta-D-ribo, and -alpha,beta-L-lyxo configurations is presented. The conformations of the synthesized sugar amino acids and their precursors are discussed on the basis of 1H NMR data. The influence of the 5-carboxyl group on the pyranose ring conformation is assessed, and the bonding of the monosugar amino acids into dimeric glycotides, using conventional solution-phase peptide syntheses, is reported.
