Amide-linked lysine mono- and di-uronic acid fragments of the O-specific polysaccharide from P. mirabilis O27 have been synthesised. N epsilon-Boc-L-lysine tert-butyl ester was condensed with 2-azidoethyl glycosides of glucuronic acid and beta-D-GlcpNAc-(1----3)-beta-D-GlcpA. Transformation of the products into 2-acrylamidoethyl glycosides, followed by deprotection using trifluoroacetic acid, gave the target monomers that were converted into high-molecular-weight copolymer-type neoglycoconjugates.
