Abstract
A sulfur-substituted analogue of trigalacturonic acid (3) was synthesized. The synthesis features the application of 3-cyano-3-(tert-butyldimethylsilyl)oxypropylthioether (CSP) as a novel protective group for thiols. This analogue was designed with the expectation that it would be a stable analogous substrate for endo-polygalacturonase isolated from Stereum purpureum based on computer modeling experiments. Surface plasmon resonance experiments revealed that 3 forms a stable complex with the target enzyme.
