Parallel chemoenzymatic synthesis of sialosides containing a C...

A convenient chemoenzymatic strategy for synthesizing sialosides containing a C5-diversified sialic acid was developed. The alpha2,3- and alpha2,6-linked sialosides containing a 5-azido neuraminic acid synthesized by a highly efficient one-pot three-enzyme approach were converted to C5''-amino sialosides, which were used as common intermediates for chemical parallel synthesis to quickly generate a series of sialosides containing various sialic acid forms.
