Starting from commercially available ( S)-isoserine and effectively accessible ( S)-α-methylserine, enantiopure cyclic sulfamidates have been prepared as chiral building blocks for the synthesis of various S- and O-glycosylated amino acid derivatives, including unnatural variants of the Tn antigen, through highly chemo-, regio-, and stereoselective nucleophilic ring-opening reactions with carbohydrate C1- S- and C1- O-nucleophiles.
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.
