Synthesis and biological activity of α-galactosyl ceramide KRN7000 and galactosyl (α1→2) galactosyl ceramide

We herein report a faster and less cumbersome synthesis of the biologically attractive, α-galactosyl ceramide (α-GalCer), known as KRN7000, and its analogues. More importantly, the use of a silicon tethered intramolecular glycosylation reaction gave easy access to the diglycosyl ceramide Gal(α1→2)Ga...
