Abstract

Abstract A β-lactosyl residue was linked to the amino groups of l-lysyl-l-lysine through spacer arms of three different lengths (C 2, C 4, and C 9) to give trivalent β-lactosyl clusters in order to increase the inhibitory activity of the β-lactosyl group against tumor cell colonization. Thus, O-(2, 3, 4, 6-tetra-O-acetyl-β-d-galactopyranosyl)-(1→-4)-2, 3, 6,-tri-O- acetyl-glucopyranosyl trichloroacetimidate was treated with methyl or benzyl ...
