Abstract

Anionic O2 derivatives of methyl 3-deoxy-3-(4-methylbenzamido)-1-thio-beta- d-galactopyranoside have been synthesized as inhibitors against galectin-3. The sulfate, H-phosphonate, and benzyl phosphate derivatives showed an increased affinity as compared to the parent unsubstituted galactopyranoside. Modeling revealed arginine-144 being pinched by the C3 benzamide and O2 anionic substituents in that the benzamide stacked face-to-face and the anionic O2 substituent ion-paired with the guanidinium moiety.
