The chemoenzymic synthesis is described of b-D-Galp-(1-4)-b-D-Glcp-(1-6)-[b-D-Galp-(1-4)]-b-DGlcpNAc-(1-O[CH2]3O-4)-b-D-Glcp-(1-OCH2CH=CH2) 32 and b-D-Galp-(1-4)-b-D-GlcpNAc-(1-O[CH2]3O-4)-b-D-Glcp-(1-6)-[b-D-Galp-(1-4)]-b-D-GlcpNAc-(1-O[CH2]3O-4)-b-D-Glcp-(1-OCH2-CH=CH2) 33, representing hexa- and octasaccharide mimics of fragments of the Streptococcus pneumoniae type 14 polysaccharide. In a chemical approach the intermediate linear oligosaccharide mimics 30 and 31 were synthesized, wherein both terminal and non-terminal N-acetyl-b-D-glucosamine residues were not yet galactosylated. The alkyl-bridged derivatives were found to be good acceptor substrates for bovine milk b-1,4-galactosyltransferase. Reaction of the anomeric allyl functions with cysteamine under UV-irradiation gave the corresponding 3-(2-aminoethylthio)propyl glycosides 34 and 35, suitable for further coupling of the oligosaccharide mimics to protein carriers.
