Lipopolysaccharides from Bacteroides vulgatus represent interesting targets for the
treatment of inflammatory bowel diseases. However, efficient access to long, branched and …

Glycosylation chemistry of 3-deoxy-d-manno-oct-2-ulosonic acid units has been
considerably developed within the last decade. This review covers major achievements with …

Acinetobacter baumannii is currently posing a serious threat to global health.
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is a potent virulence factor of pathogenic Gram‐negative bacteria …

The stereodirecting effect of C5-ester functions on the glycosylation stereoselectivity of 3-
deoxy-d-manno-oct-2-ulosonic acid (Kdo) ethyl thioglycoside donors is presented. The …

The stereoselective synthesis of oligosaccharides remains one of the biggest challenges in
carbohydrate chemistry. Many factors, including reaction conditions and the type of glycosyl …

We describe a method for the α-selective glycosidation of 3-deoxy-d-manno-2-octulosonic
acid (Kdo) using a macrobicyclic Kdo donor as the precursor of a bridgehead oxocarbenium …

A convenient and efficient approach was developed to synthesize α-Kdo O-glycosides
based on the Tf2O/(p-Tol) 2SO preactivation strategy using peracetylated Kdo thioglycoside …

Deoxy‐d‐manno‐oct‐2‐ulosonic acid (Kdo) is an eight‐carbon monosaccharide found
widely in bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPSs) and capsule polysaccharides (CPSs). We …

Chemical synthesis of 3-deoxy-d-manno-2-octulosonic acid (Kdo)-containing glycans, such
as bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPSs) and capsular polysaccharides (CPSs), is in high …

The pseudosymmetric relationship of the bacterial sialic acid, pseudaminic acid, and 3-
deoxy-d-manno-oct-2-ulosonic acid (KDO) affords the hypothesis that suitably protected …
