M. Masuda et T. Shimizu, SYNTHESIS OF NOVEL ALPHA,OMEGA-TYPE 1-GLUCOSAMIDE AND 1-GALACTOSAMIDEBOLAAMPHIPHILES, Journal of carbohydrate chemistry, 17(3), 1998, pp. 405-416
A new family of bolaamphiphiles in which two glucosylamine or galactos
ylamine moieties are linked via a beta-N-glycosidic bond to an alpha,o
mega-dicarboxylic acid has been described. The 1-D-glucosamide and 1-D
-galactosamide bolaamphiphiles were obtained in good yield by the cond
ensation of the dicarboxylic acid dichloride with the corresponding 1-
aldopyranosylamine.
