Synthesis of the tetrasaccharide repeating unit of the O-antigen from E. coli O131 was accomplished through a linear strategy involving rationally protected monosaccharide units derived from commercially available sugars. The challenging alpha-glycosylation of N-acetyl neuraminic acid was achieved through activation of thioglycoside using NIS-mediated glycosylation strategy. The target tetrasaccharide in the form of its 3-aminopropyl glycoside may be used for further glycoconjugate formation without hampering the anomeric stereochemistry.
