Synthesis of C-glycosidically linked ADP glycero-β-d-manno-heptose analogues

C-Glycosides of l-glycero-d-manno- and d-glycero-d-manno-heptose containing either (S)- or (R)-2-hydroxypropyl aglycons are easily accessible compounds via condensation of reducing heptoses with pentane-2,4-dione. 2′,3′-Di-O-acetyl adenosine was transformed into the corresponding 5′-O-cyanoethyl N,N-diisopropylaminophosphoramidite derivative, which was coupled in fair yields to the O-acetylated diastereoisomeric C-glycosidic alcohols. Oxidation of the phosphite triesters followed by deprotection furnished four ADP-heptose analogues, wherein the heptosyl phosphate moiety had been replaced by a three carbon-skeleton. The compounds serving as substrate analogues will be used for co-crystallization experiments with ADP heptosyl transferases.
