The 2-aminoethyl glycoside of 0 -a-L-f u cop yr anos y 1-(1 + 2 ) -0 -p -Dgalactopyranosyl-( 1+3)-[ O-a-L-fucopyranosyl-( 1+4)]-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-p-Dglucopyranose (Lewis B tetrasaccharide) was synthesized on a large scale and acryloylated with acryloyl chloride. The obtained oligosaccharide 2-acrylamidoethyl glycoside was then copolymerized with acrylamide to form a water-soluble, high molecular weight polymer, suitable for use in adhesion inhibition studies with HeZicobacter pylori. Also synthesized were the corresponding derivatives of 0 -a-L-f ucop yr anosyl-( 1 -+ 2)-0-p-D-gal a c topyranosyl-(l+3)-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-p-D-glucopyranose and O-a-L-fucopyranosyl-( 1+2)-p-D-galactopyranose.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
