Campylobacter jejuni is a bacterial pathogen that causes millions of food-borne gastroenteritis cases annually and is associated with serious autoimmune sequelae. The unique polysaccharide structure of C. jejuni HS:4 has potential for eliciting protective antibodies. However, its chemical synthesis is challenging. This study reports an efficient synthesis of the key repeating disaccharide and its analog using a one-step conversion method.
Campylobacter jejuni is a bacterial pathogen that causes hundreds of millions of cases of food-borne gastroenteritis worldwide annually. The infection caused by this bacterium is also associated with several forms of post-infectious autoimmune sequelae that can be very serious, including the life-threatening Guillain-Barre syndrome. The capsular polysaccharides (CPS) of C. jejuni HS:4 consist of a very unique repeating disaccharide unit that is characterized by a beta-1,4-linked 6-deoxy-beta-d-ido-heptopyranose and an N-acetyl-beta-d-glucosamine. Eliciting carbohydrate-specific antibodies against the CPS structures of C. jejuni HS:4 is an attractive strategy. The 6-deoxy-ido-configuration of the heptose combined with its beta-anomeric configuration makes the chemical synthesis of the disaccharide very challenging. Here, we report an efficient synthesis to obtain the key repeating disaccharide and its analog in reverse order plus a trisaccharide. Our synthesis features a highly efficient, one-step stereo- and regioselective conversion of beta-d-galacto-heptopyranosides to 6-deoxy-beta-d-ido-heptopyranosides via the intermediate 2,3-anhydro-beta-d-talo-heptopyranosides.
