Synthesis of a new allosamidin analog, N,N'-diacetyl-beta-chitobiosyl allosamizoline and its inhibitory activity against some chitinases

Biosci Biotechnol Biochem. 1993 Dec;57(12):2067-9. doi: 10.1271/bbb.57.2067.

Abstract

A new allosamidin analog (2), possessing an N',N'-diacetylchitobiosyl moiety as a constituent, was stereoselectively synthesized through the coupling reaction between the disaccharide thioglycoside derivative (5) and allosamizoline derivative (6). The inhibitory activity of 2 against chitinases derived from an insect, yeast and mold were tested and compared with that of allosamidin (1).
