Popis: In this study we described the synthesis of a hybrid polysaccharide harboring moieties of ulvan and kappa-carrabiose. Alkylamines (1,3-diaminopropane and 1,6-diaminohexane) were selectively inserted into β-D-GlcAp and α-L-IdoAp units in the ulvan structure via an amide bond formation producing ulvan-amide derivatives F-DAP (N% = 1.77; Mw = 208 kg mol−1) and F-DAH (N% = 1.77; Mw = 202 kg mol−1), which were reacted with kappa-carrabiose via reductive amination to produce hybrid ulvan-kappa-carrabiose polysaccharides F-DAP-Kb (N% = 1.56; Mw = 206 kg mol−1) and F-DAH-Kb (N% = 1.16; Mw = 200 kg mol−1). All the ulvan derivatives were characterized by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy and did not show cytotoxicity against human dermal fibroblasts (HDFa) at the concentrations of 25, 100, and 500 μg mL−1, neither anticoagulant properties at the range of 10–150 μg mL−1. Therefore, the ulvan-amide derivatives and the hybrid ulvan-kappa-carrabiose polysaccharides showed good biocompatibility in vitro, presenting as worthy candidates for tailoring scaffolds for biomedical applications.
