Continuous-Flow Accelerated Sulfation of Heparan Sulfate Intermediates

We report for the first time a continuous-flow strategy to execute O-sulfation modification of heparan sulfate (HS) oligosaccharides. A systematic investigation of the influence of the flow parameters on the installation of the sulfate group on glucosamine monosaccharide can aid the development of a comprehensive, quick, and reliable strategy for O-sulfation of HS oligosaccharide precursors. Deprotection of the sulfated heparin intermediates led to the development of a comprehensive biologically inspired oligosaccharide library to understand the crucial structure–function relationship of HS.
