Abstract
A simple route for the synthesis of ureido-linked glycosylated amino acids has been described. The key step involves the reaction of isocyanates derived from N α-Fmoc-Asp/Glu-5-oxazolidinones 1 with glycosyl amines followed by hydrolysis. The resulting ureido-linked glycosylated amino acids have been incorporated into peptides. The overall procedure is simple, high-yielding, and involves fewer steps.
