Synthesis and biological evaluation of enantiomeric rhamnose analogues of the antitumour agent spicamycin - is the mode of action by modification of N-linked glycoproteins?
The synthesis of both enantiomers of dodecyl rhamnospicamycin 2a and 2b, a rhamnose analogue of the naturally occurring combinatorial library spicamycin 1, are derived from L-rhamnose and methyl α-D-mannopyranoside, respectively. The L-(+)-enantiomer 2a containing an L-rhamnose fragment is shown to...
