Abstract

Abstract A new synthesis of the hexasaccharide MBr1 antigen (globo-H) is reported. A revised construction with improved efficiency was necessary because an anti-cancer vaccine containing this antigen is entering phase II and phase III clinical trials for prostate cancer. The key feature of this second generation synthesis is the preparation of globo-H as its n-pentenyl glycoside. This group serves as an anomeric protecting group and as a ...
