The 2-(trimethylsilyl)ethyl (TMSEt) beta-glycosides of globotetraose [beta-D-GalNAc-(1-->3)-alpha-D-Gal-(1-->4)-beta-D-Gal-(1-->4)-D-Glc] and the terminal trisaccharide, as well as the methyl alpha-glycoside 1 of the terminal disaccharide, were synthesised by silver trifluoromethanesulfonate-promoted beta-glycosylation of suitably protected galactoside, galabioside, and globotrioside alcohols with 3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-2-deoxy-2-phthalimido-beta-D-galactopyranosyl chloride, followed by removal of protecting groups. Removal of the anomeric TMSEt group of the globotetraoside and of the terminal trisaccharide, using trifluoroacetic acid-dichloromethane, gave the corresponding hemiacetal sugars 8 and 3. The TMSEt glycoside of the terminal trisaccharide was converted, via the 1-acetate, into the corresponding isobutyl (4) and 3-butylsulfonyl-2-[(butylsulfonyl)methyl]propyl (5) glycosides and into the TMSEt thioglycoside 6 via the glycosyl bromide.

D005915 Globosides Glycosphingolipids containing N-acetylglucosamine (paragloboside) or N-acetylgalactosamine (globoside). Globoside is the P antigen on erythrocytes and paragloboside is an intermediate in the biosynthesis of erythrocyte blood group ABH and P 1 glycosphingolipid antigens. The accumulation of globoside in tissue, due to a defect in hexosaminidases A and B, is the cause of Sandhoff disease.
