Article Title: | A practical total synthesis of globo-H for use in anticancer vaccines |
Abstract: | (Chemical Equation Presented) An improved synthesis of the hexasaccharide MBr1 antigen (globo-H) is reported. Enhanced efficiency in the synthesis was necessary for the scale-up production of globo-H, in order to advance globo-H-based anticancer vaccines to clinical trials. The key features of the improved synthesis include preactivation-based glycosylations and a revised iodosulfonimidation/rearrangement. © 2009 American Chemical Society. |
