RESUMO
A practical synthesis of the very rare sugar d-idose and the stable building blocks for d-idose, d-iduronic, and d-idonic acids from ido-heptonic acid requires only isopropylidene protection, Shing silica gel-supported periodate cleavage of the C6-C7 bond of the heptonic acid, and selective reduction of C1 and/or C6. d-Idose is the most unstable of all the aldohexoses and a stable precursor which be stored and then converted under very mild conditions into d-idose is easily prepared.

L-Iduronic acid (IdoA) is an important monosaccharide component of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) such as heparin, heparan sulfate and dermatan sulfate. GAGs are complex, highly sulfated polysaccharides that mediate a multitude of physiological and pathological processes via their interactions with a range of diverse proteins. The main challenge in the synthesis of GAG oligosaccharides is the efficient gram-scale preparation of IdoA building blocks since neither IdoA nor L-idose is commercially available or readily accessible from natural sources. In this review, the different synthetic approaches for the preparation of IdoA and its derivatives, including L-idose, are presented and discussed. Derivatives of the latter are often used in GAG synthesis and are elaborated to IdoA via selective oxidation at C-6 after incorporation into a GAG chain. Particular focus will be given to the preparation of IdoA synthons most commonly used for GAG oligosaccharide synthesis, and on the progress made since the last systematic review in this area.

Heparin and heparan sulphate (H/HS) are important members of the glycosaminoglycan family of sugars that regulate a substantial number of biological processes. Such biological promiscuity is underpinned by hetereogeneity in their molecular structure. The degree of O-sulfation, particularly at the 6-position of constituent D-GlcN units, is believed to play a role in modulating the effects of such sequences. Synthetic chemistry is essential to be able to extend the diversity of HS-like fragments with defined molecular structure, and particularly to deconvolute the biological significance of modifications at O6. Here we report a synthetic approach to a small matrix of protected heparin-type oligosaccharides, containing orthogonal D-GlcN O-6 protecting groups at programmed positions along the chain, facilitating access towards programmed modifications at specific sites, relevant to sulfation or future mimetics.

L-Idofuranoside cyanohydrin 1 is converted on large scale into a mixture of L-IdoA methyl pyranosides and furanosides, which is converged to provide short 2-step routes to bicyclic [3.2.1] or [2.2.2] L-iduronate lactones. The former is obtained via a 100 g scale synthesis of 3-OBn L-IdoA. A two-step conversion of this mixture provides either pure anomer of the novel [2.2.2] l-iduronate thioglycoside lactones. Both [3.2.1] and [2.2.2] lactones are converted into GlcN-IdoA heparin precursor disaccharides. The [2.2.2] lactone enables a scalable 3-step route from 1 to a new type of highly disarmed O-4 iduronate thioglycoside, which is an effective acceptor with glucoazide thioglycoside donors. The resulting new iduronic [2.2.2] lactone disaccharides are readily rearmed by mild methanolysis to provide GlcN-IdoA thiophenyl disaccharide donors, intercepting their established utility for the assembly of both heparin- and heparan sulfate-like oligosaccharides. The [2.2.2] lactonization acts as a conformational switch to superdisarm iduronate components, reversible by lactone ring opening. In addition, the separated 2,4-diacetates also provide short access to all four anomeric and ring size isomers of l-iduronic acid methyl glycosides, including the first syntheses of the parent idofuranosides. X-ray structures are reported for a [2.2.2] iduronate lactone and examples of both methyl L-idopyranoside and novel methyl-L-idofuranoside systems.

Synthesis of an array of differentially sulfated GlcN-IdoA disaccharides, accessible on good scale, directly from l-iduronate components is described. These are specifically directed to provide the sulfation variability at the key most common biologically relevant sulfation-variable l-IdoA O-2 and d-GlcN O-6 and amino sites of this heparin disaccharide. This sulfation-varied matrix has allowed the first evaluation of using Raman/ROA spectroscopy to characterize changes in spectra as a function of both site and level of sulfation with pure, defined heparin-related disaccharide species. This provides analysis of both similarities and differences to digest native heparin and this shows evidence of different types of changes in conformations and conformational freedom as a function of some specific sulfation changes at the disaccharide level. It is anticipated that this data set will open the way for applications to further site-specific sulfated saccharides and demonstrates the capability offered by Raman-ROA towards fingerprinting sulfation in heparin fragments.

Identification of carbohydrate sequences that determine affinity to specific chemokines is a critical step for strategies to interfere with chemokine-mediated leukocyte trafficking. Here, we first characterized the development of allergic asthma in Tie2-dependent and inducible Ext1-knockout (Tie2-Ext1(iKO)) mice. We showed that heparan sulfate is essential for leukocyte recruitment in the peribronchial region and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), and is crucial for induction of airway hyperresponsiveness. Our glycan microarray showed a unique affinity profile of chemokine CCL20 to substructures of heparin and heparin-like oligo/di/monosaccharides. Among them, we identified a synthetic and not naturally occurring monosaccharide, 2,4-O-di-sulfated iduronic acid (Di-S-IdoA), as a potential inhibitor for CCL20-heparan sulfate interaction. Mice injected with Di-S-IdoA via tail vain or nasal inhalation showed attenuated leukocyte recruitment into inflammatory sites and BALF. These results demonstrate a critical role of chemokine-heparan sulfate interaction in the asthma development and Di-S-IdoA as a potential drug for asthma treatment.

A synthesis to L-iduronic derivatives, major components of heparin derived pentasaccharides was accomplished by formal inversion of configuration at C-5 of a D-glucuronic acid derivative through radical formation at C-5 using Barton decarboxylation followed by intramolecular radical addition on an acetylenic tether at O-4 giving exclusively a bicyclic sugar of L-ido configuration. Oxidation and ring opening of this bicyclic sugar led to a L-iduronate. This method opens the way to short syntheses of pentasaccharidic moiety of Idraparinux and congeners.

A divergent de novo synthesis of six differentially protected l-iduronic acid thioglycosides from a common advanced precursor is described. The key step of this synthetic sequence is the stereoselective elongation of dithioacetal protected C5-dialdehyde 11 via a highly diastereoselective MgBr(2).OEt(2)-mediated cyanation. Orthogonally protected l-iduronic acid building blocks obtained by this synthesis are expected to facilitate access to differentially sulfated heparins for microarray-based structure-activity relationship studies.

L-ido cyanohydrin 3 was prepared from diacetone-D-glucose in four steps and 76% overall yield and 90% de via cyanohydrin reaction of aldehyde 2. This process can be scaled to provide >1 mol of pure L-ido cyanohydrin 3. Cyanohydrin 3 was elaborated to 1,2-isopropylidine-protected L-ido nitrile (8), iduronic amide 9, and known carboxy ester 10. Coupling of 8 and 9 with glucosamine donors leads to new types (6-cyano and 6-carboxamide) of heparin-related disaccharides.

D-glucuronate and l-iduronate containing disaccharides related to the antithrombin-binding pentasaccharide of heparin, in which one of the sulfate esters is systematically replaced by a sodium sulfonatomethyl moiety, were synthesized. The sulfonic acid group was introduced by stereoselective radical addition onto the exomethylene moiety of the appropriate glycoside derivatives, and the resulting sulfonatomethyl glucosides were used as acceptors.

An improved understanding of the biological activities of heparin requires structurally defined heparin oligosaccharides. The chemoenzymatic synthesis of heparin oligosaccharides relies on glycosyltransferases that use UDP-sugar nucleotides as donors. Uridine 5'-diphosphoiduronic acid (UDP-IdoA) and uridine 5'-diphosphohexenuronic acid (UDP-HexUA) have been synthesized as potential analogues of uridine 5'-diphosphoglucuronic acid (UDP-GlcA) for enzymatic incorporation into heparin oligosaccharides. Non-natural UDP-IdoA and UDP-HexUA were tested as substrates for various glucuronosyltransferases to better understand enzyme specificity.

The synthesis of a bicyclic analogue of the naturally occurring alpha-L-iduronic acid locked in a biologically active (2)S0 skewboat conformation is disclosed. The desired (2)S0 conformation has been obtained by tethering the C-2 and C-5 carbon atoms of the sugar ring with a dimethyloxy bridge and confirmed by NMR and molecular modeling. The new mimic displays the exact hydroxyl pattern of alpha-L-iduronic acid, a major monosaccharide component of glycosaminoglycans and thus represents a closer mimic of the latter, compared to previously reported bicyclic analogs.

An efficient divergent synthesis of L-sugars and L-iminosugars from D-sugars is described. The important intermediate, delta-hydroxyalkoxamate, prepared from D-glucono-/galactono-1,5-lactone, was cyclized under Mitsunobu conditions to give the O-cyclized oxime compound and the N-cyclized lactam compound as mixtures. A more detailed investigation revealed that the appropriate protecting groups and solvents controlled the specificity for the O-/N-cyclization of the delta-hydroxyalkoxamate. Suitable protection at the 6-position of delta-hydroxyalkoxamate, derived from D-glucono-1,5-lactone, afforded the corresponding O-alkylation product alone. Thus we succeeded in applying this to the total synthesis of L-iduronic acid. In contrast, with both TBDMS as the protecting group and RCN as the solvent the efficient conversion of D-glucono/galactono-1,5-lactone into the corresponding L-iminosugars (L-idonolactam and L-altronolactam) was achieved.

A novel and convenient route for the synthesis of biologically potent and rare L-hexose derivatives from D-glucose is described. Conversion of diacetone-alpha-D-glucose (14) into 1,2:3,5-di-O-isopropylidene-beta-L-idofuranose (19) was efficiently carried out in two steps. Orthogonal isopropylidene rearrangement of compound 19 led to 1,2:5,6-di-O-isopropylidene-beta-L-idofuranose (27), which underwent regioselective epimerization at the C3 position to give the L-talo- and 3-functionalized L-idofuranosyl derivatives. Hydrolysis of compound 19 under acidic conditions furnished 1,6-anhydro-beta-L-idopyranose (35) in excellent yield, which was successfully transformed into the corresponding L-allo, L-altro, L-gulo, and L-ido derivatives via regioselective benzylation, benzoylation, triflation and nucleophilic substitution as the key steps. Applications of these 1,6-anhydro-beta-L-hexopyranoses as valuable building blocks to the syntheses of 4-methylcoumarin-7-yl-alpha-L-iduronic acid and the disaccharide moieties of bleomycin A(2) as well as heparan sulfate are highlighted.

The inclusion of both beta-D-xylosidases and alpha-L-iduronidases within the same sequence-related family (family 39), despite the considerable difference in substrate structures and poor sequence conservation around the putative nucleophile, raises concerns about whether a common mechanism is followed by the two enzymes. A novel anchimeric assistance mechanism for iduronidases involving a lactone intermediate is one possibility. NMR analysis of the methanolysis reaction catalyzed by human alpha-L-iduronidase reveals that, as with the beta-D-xylosidases, alpha-L-iduronidase is a retaining glycosidase. Using two different mechanism-based inactivators, 5-fluoro-alpha-L-iduronyl fluoride and 2-deoxy-2-fluoro-alpha-L-iduronyl fluoride, the active site nucleophile in the human alpha-L-iduronidase was identified as Glu299 within the (295)IYNDEAD(301) sequence. The equivalent, though loosely predicted, glutamic acid was identified as the nucleophile in the family 39 beta-D-xylosidase from Bacillus sp. [Vocadlo, D., et al. (1998) Biochem. J. 335, 449-455]; thus, a common mechanism involving a covalent glycosyl-enzyme intermediate that adopts the rather uncommon (2,5)B conformation is predicted.

Methyl 1,2,4-tri-O-acetyl-3-O-benzyl-L-idopyranuronate 6beta/6alpha, prepared from methyl 3-O-benzyl-L-iduronate (4), is a key synthon in heparin/heparan sulfate synthesis. The 1H and 13C NMR spectra of the furanose-pyranose mixture of 4, after dissolution and equilibration in d(4)-methanol, were fully assigned allowing to expect that 4 could crystallise in the beta-pyranose form. New acetylation conditions able to trap this form were subsequently devised, allowing the isolation of 83% of pure 6beta by simple crystallisation, along with 9% of the 6beta/6alpha mixture. This represents a major advantage over the previously published procedure, especially on multigram scales.

We report in this work the total synthesis of a close analogue of the pentasaccharide active site of heparin, in which the L-iduronic acid residue has been deoxygenated at position three. 1H NMR studies demonstrated that, as anticipated, such a modification induces a shift of the conformational equilibrium toward 1C4 (contribution to the conformational equilibrium rises from 37% to 65%) and a substantial decrease of the affinity for antithrombin III (Kd 0.154 microM versus 0.050 microM).

Procedures are described for the preparation of two disaccharides, 4-O-alpha-L-iduronosyl-2,5-anhydro[3H]mannitol and 3-O-alpha-L-iduronosyl-2,5-anhydro[3H]-talitol, from heparin and dermatan sulfate, respectively. These disaccharides lend themselves to an easy assay of alpha-L-iduronidase which is based on the fractionation of the liberated neutral anhydro[3H]mannitol or anhydro[3H]talitol from the unreacted substrate by adsorption of the latter to Dowex 1. Investigation of the reaction conditions showed that the alpha-L-iduronidase activity (enzyme from human fibroblasts and Helix pomatia) was optimal at pH 3.6 in acetate buffer containing 0.01 M NaCl with iduronosyl-2,5-anhydro[3H]mannitol as substrate. For iduronosyl-2,5-anhydro[3H]talitol the pH optimum was 4.0 with the H. pomatia enzyme. The KM for iduronosyl-2,5-anhydro[3H]mannitol was 0.23 mM with human fibroblasts and 0.04 mM with Helix enzyme; a KM value of 0.02 mM was determined for iduronosyl-2,5-anhydro[3H]talitol with the Helix alpha-L-iduronidase.
