12 Dec 2014
Abstract excerpt
Resistance of bacterial pathogens toward antibiotics has revived interest in lipopolysaccharide (LPS) motifs as potential therapeutic targets. The LPS of several pathogenic Acinetobacter strains comprises a 4,5-branched Kdo trisaccharide containing an uncommon (2→5)-linkage. In this contribution the first stereoselective glycosylation method for obtaining an α-Kdo-(2→5)-α-Kdo disaccharide in good yield is...
