Abstract
(Equation presented) The Ugi reaction has been used to prepare divalent galactose derivatives. NMR analysis shows that a divalent neoglycoconjugate, where the glycopeptides are bridged by a terephthaloyl group, is an 83:17 mixture of two conformers; the amide groups of the major isomer have E-anti conformations. The spatial relationship and the relative orientation of the sugars are restricted, which may have consequences for the recognition of this and related structures in biological systems.
