Has anyone an idea or reference on where to buy or how to
synthesize a compound called "ManLev", which is N-levulinoyl
mannosamine, basically a N-acteylmannosamine in which the amine
group is substituted by levulinic acid (COOH-CH2-CH2-CO-CH3)?
I'm not a chemist, so I don't think mixing ManNAc and levulinic
acid will work, and even if so, how to purify the ManLev???
Help required!!!
Looking forward to your replies..., thanks
Klaus
