Popis: We describe a total synthesis of a polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA)-containing glucuronosyldiacylglycerol (GlcADG), which is a surrogate glycolipid whose synthesis is remarkably upregulated in plant membranes under phosphorus-depleted conditions. Glycosylation between the glucuronide donor bearing 3,4-dimethoxybenzyl (DMPM) protecting groups and di-acylglycerol acceptor proceeded smoothly in the presence of gold(I) catalyst to provide the protected α-isomer of GlcADG as the major product.
