Preparations of the highly ordered monoantennary, homofunctional diantennary, and heterofunctional diantennary neoglycopolymers of α-d-mannose and β-d-glucose residues were achieved via ring-opening metathesis polymerization. Isothermal titration calorimetry measurements of these synthetic neoglycopolymers with Concanavalin A (Con A), revealed that heterofunctional diantennary architectures bearing both α-mannose and nonbinding β-glucose units, poly(Man-Glc), binds to Con A (Ka = 16.1 × 106 M–1) comparably to homofunctional diantennary neoglycopolymer (Ka = 30 × 106 M–1) bearing only α-mannose unit, poly(Man-Man). In addition, poly(Man-Glc) neoglycopolymer shows a nearly 5-fold increasing in binding affinity compared to monoantennary neoglycopolymer, poly(Man). Although the exact mechanism for the high binding affinity of poly(Man-Glc) to Con A is unclear, we hypothesize that the α-mannose bound to Con A might facilitate interaction of β-glucose with the extended binding site of Con A due to the close proximity of β-glucose to α-mannose residues in the designed polymerizable scaffold.
