Abstract:
We report here a range of new sucrose derivatives obtained from '3-ketosucrose' in aqueous medium with few reaction steps. As an intermediate, 3-amino-3-deoxy-alpha-D-allopyranosyl beta-D-fructofuranoside (1) was obtained via the classical route of reductive amination with much improved yield and high stereoselectivity. Building blocks for polymerization were synthesized by introduction of acrylic-type side chains, for example, with methacrylic anhydride. Corresponding polymers were synthesized. Aminoacyl and peptide conjugates were obtained through conventional peptide synthesis with activated and protected amino acids. Deprotection yielded new glycoderivatives having an unconventional substitution pattern, namely 3-(aminoacylamino) allosaccharides. Both mono- and di-peptide conjugates of allosucrose have been synthesized.

Structures of Carboxylic Acid Derivatives
Carboxylic acid derivatives contain an acyl group attached to a heteroatom such as chlorine, oxygen, or nitrogen. The carbonyl carbon and oxygen are both sp2-hybridized with an unhybridized p orbital.
The three sp2 orbitals of the carbonyl carbon form three σ bonds, one each with the carbonyl oxygen, the α carbon, and the heteroatom, whereas the other two sp2 orbitals of the carbonyl oxygen are occupied by the lone pairs. Further, the unhybridized p...
