First examples of di- and trinucleosides with ribose and xylose stereochemistry having internucleoside ether linkage were synthesized from 3,5'-ether-linked pseudosaccharides. The synthetic protocol involved removal of 1,2-isopropylidene protecting groups from the pseudosaccharides followed by acetylation and a subsequent Vorbruggen transglycosylation with uracil and N-benzoylaminopurine. The synthetic strategy is potentially important for the development of RNA analogues with internucleoside ether linkage.

Article Synopsis
- Serotypes 6C and 6D are significant contributors to invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD), alongside 6A and 6B, and the introduction of vaccines PCV7 and PCV13 has significantly reduced IPD cases in children and the elderly.
- * However, the use of these vaccines has led to a replacement effect among serotypes, which reduces overall vaccine effectiveness.
- * To tackle this issue, researchers developed a library of oligosaccharide fragments from the capsular polysaccharides of serotypes 6A, 6B, 6C, and 6D to create glycoprotein vaccines, demonstrating that certain conjugates can induce strong immune responses and cross-protective activity
Toxicity modulation, resistance enzyme evasion, and A-site X-ray structure of broad-spectrum antibacterial neomycin analogs.

Aminoglycoside antibiotics are pseudosaccharides decorated with ammonium groups that are critical for their potent broad-spectrum antibacterial activity. Despite over three decades of speculation whether or not modulation of pKa is a viable strategy to curtail aminoglycoside kidney toxicity, there is a lack of methods to systematically probe amine-RNA interactions and resultant cytotoxicity trends. This study reports the first series of potent aminoglycoside antibiotics harboring fluorinated N1-hydroxyaminobutyryl acyl (HABA) appendages for which fluorine-RNA contacts are revealed through an X-ray cocrystal structure within the RNA A-site.

Glycosylphosphatidyl inositol (GPI) anchors play a key role in many eukaryotic biological pathways. Stereoselective synthesis of GPI anchor analogues have proven to be critical for probing the biosynthesis, structure, and biological properties of these compounds. Challenges that have emerged from these efforts include the preparation of the selectively protected myo-inositol building blocks and the stereoselective construction of glucosamine α-linked myo-inositol containing pseudodisaccharide units.

Treatment of the d-glucose-derived substrate 1 with sodium hydride in tetrahydrofuran provided 3,6-anhydro monosaccharide 2, along with the 5,6-ether linked pseudodisaccharide 3, and pseudotrisaccharide 4. However, reaction of 1 with sodium ethoxide in ethanol afforded 2 as the sole product, elaborated to the bicyclic azidonucleosides 9 and 16. Acetylated bicyclic nucleosides 17-19 with extended carbohydrate residues have been synthesized from 3.
