Use of the NEO strategy (Nucleophilic addition/Epoxide Opening) for the synthesis of a new C-galactoside ester analogue of KRN 7000.

摘要

Our goal in the search for potentially bioactive analogues of KRN 7000 was to design an easy synthetic approach to a library of analogues using a strategy recently developed in our laboratory based on a Nucleophilic addition followed by an Epoxide Opening (the NEO strategy). Through the use of a common pivotal structure, a new C-galactoside ester analogue (23) was synthesized which showed an encouraging T(H)2 biased response during preliminary biological tests.
