P(1)-Citronellyl-P(2)-alpha-D-pyranosyl pyrophosphates containing alpha-D-N-acetylglucoseaminyl, alpha-D-glucosyl, and alpha-D-N-acetylmuramyl carbohydrates were synthesized and used in substrate specificity studies of the Escherichia coli MurG enzyme. Oxalyl chloride activation of citronellyl phosphate for coupling to alpha-D-pyranose-1-phosphates resulted in markedly improved yields over traditional Khorana-Moffatt and diphenyl chlorophosphate activation strategies.
