Synthesis of a Di-Mycoloyl Tri-Arabinofuranosyl Glycerol Fragment of the Mycobacterial Cell Wall, Based on Synthetic Mycolic Acids

Synthesis of a Di-Mycoloyl Tri-Arabinofuranosyl Glycerol Fragment of the Mycobacterial Cell Wall, Based on Synthetic Mycolic Acids

Fragments of mycobacterial cell walls such as arabinoglycerol mycolate and dimycoloyl diarabinoglycerol, comprising complex mixtures of mycolic acids, have immunostimulatory and antigenic properties. A related di-mycoloyl tri-arabinofuranosyl glycerol fragment has been isolated from cell wall hydrol...
