Recent Carbohydrate-Based Chemoselective Ligation Applications

چکیده
Abstract: Chemoselective ligation reactions are highly efficient and specific covalent bond forming reactions capable of proceeding within a physiological environment. Chemoselective ligations offer exquisite specificity, similar to enzymatic reactions, but with the significant advantage of accessing a much broader range of coupling partners. Thus, even among a multitude of reactive functional groups, two ligation partners exclusively react with one another. While chemoselective ligation has been used in many applications, the focus of this review is the application of chemoselective ligation reactions toward carbohydrate-based structures. More specifically, recent applications are presented in areas such as immobilized carbohydrate arrays, cell-surface engineering, glycoproteins/peptides, and glycosylated natural products.

Preparation of carbohydrate arrays by using Diels-Alder reactions with inverse electron demand.
Carbohydrate microarrays are an emerging tool for the high-throughput screening of carbohydrate-protein interactions that represent the basis of many biologically and medicinally relevant processes. The crucial step in the preparation of carbohydrate arrays is the attachment of carbohydrate probes to the surface. We examined the Diels-Alder reaction with inverse-electron-demand (DARinv) as an i...

Chemoselective ligation, including "click" chemistry, has found wide utility in general synthetic strategies and the specific modification of polymers and biomolecules. This has resulted in a number of applications of such approaches, particularly in the biomedical area, including diagnostic imaging and drug delivery. However, tools to chemoselectively decorate target molecules with multiple co...
متن کاملHarnessing chemoselective imine ligation for tethering bioactive molecules to platinum(IV) prodrugs.
Platinum(II) anticancer drugs are among the most effective and often used chemotherapeutic drugs. In recent years, there has been increasing interest in exploiting inert platinum(IV) scaffolds as a prodrug strategy to mitigate the limitations of platinum(II) anticancer complexes. In this prodrug strategy, the axial ligands are released concomitantly upon intracellular reduction to the active pl...
متن کاملGeneral Chemoselective and Redox-Responsive Ligation and Release Strategy
We report a switchable redox click and cleave reaction strategy for conjugating and releasing a range of molecules on demand. This chemoselective redox-responsive ligation (CRRL) and release strategy is based on a redox switchable oxime linkage that is controlled by mild chemical or electrochemical redox signals and can be performed at physiological conditions without the use of a catalyst. Bot...
متن کاملSynthesis of heteroglycoclusters by using orthogonal chemoselective ligations
Synthetic heteroglycoclusters are being subjected to increasing interest due to their potential to serve as selective ligands for carbohydrate-binding proteins. In this paper, we describe an expedient strategy to prepare cyclopeptides displaying well-defined distributions and combinations of carbohydrates. By using both oxime ligation and copper(I)-catalyzed alkyne-azide cycloaddition, two seri...
