Idraparinux, the fully O-sulfated, O-methylated, heparin-related pentasaccharide possessing selective factor Xa inhibitory activity, was prepared by a new synthetic pathway. This route was based on a [2+3] block synthesis utilizing a 6-O-silyl-protected l-idose-containing trisaccharide acceptor, which was glycosylated with a disaccharide donor containing a non-oxidized precursor of the glucuronic acid. The unique strategy of multiple functionalizations at pentasaccharide levels, involving triple methylation followed by oxidation of the glucose and the idose precursors into d-glucuronic and l-iduronic acids in one step, proved to be highly efficient, providing the target pentasaccharide through a 39-step synthesis starting from d-glucose and methyl α-d-glucopyranoside.
