Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

A mechanism for the reaction of the glycosyl donor with the glycosyl acceptor in solid-phase synthesis of oligosaccharides is to be written. The regioselectivity of the given reaction is to be explained.

Concept Introduction:

The epoxidation of alkenes can be done by using DMDO.

The regioselectivity of epoxide ring opening reaction is determined by steric effects and the presence of electron withdrawing/donating groups attached to the epoxide carbon atoms.

An octapeptide contains the following amino acids: Arg, Glu, His, Ile, Leu, Phe, Tyr, and Val. Carboxypeptidase treatment of the octapeptide forms Phe and a heptapeptide. Treatment of the octapeptide with chymotrypsin forms two tetrapeptides, A and B. Treatment of A with trypsin yields two dipeptides, C and D. Edman degradation cleaves the following amino acids from each peptide: Glu (octapeptide), Glu (A), Ile (B), Glu (C), and Val (D). Partial hydrolysis of tetrapeptide B forms Ile–Leu in addition to other products. Deduce the structure of the octapeptide and fragments A–D.
Researchers analysed a glycopeptide (a peptide carrying one or several oligosaccharide groups) and determined both the sequence of the peptide and the sequence of the sugar molecule. The latter was identified as a diholoside coupled to the peptide by an osidic bond. The systematic name of this sugar is: B-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→4)-ß-D-galactopyranose. : Represent the chemical formula of this diholoside in a way that all oses are Question 1 represented according to the Haworth convention. Apart from the furane and/or pyrane cycles all atoms of this molecule must be given.
4. An iterative approach to oligosaccharide synthesis involves the use of protected glycals (sugars with C1-C2 double bond) as shown below. The product from the reaction of the first glycal with DMDO under anhydrous conditions is treated with another suitably-protected glycal to form a disaccharide glycal, and the process can be repeated to form a trisaccharide glycal, and so on... Crucial to the success of this approach is the stereoselective formation of the intermediate A in the scheme below. Draw the structure of A. DMDO CH₂Cl2 A OH ZnCl₂, THF OH
