Abstract

A series of eight n-octyl (thio)glycosides (1α, β–4α, β) with d-glucose or d-galactose-configured head groups and varying anomeric configuration were synthesized and evaluated for glass transition behaviour, membrane permeability, and ice recrystallization inhibition (IRI) activity. Of these, n-octyl β-d-glucopyranoside (2β) exhibited a high glass transition temperatures (Tg), both as a neat sample and 20 wt-% aqueous solution. Membrane permeability studies of this compound revealed cellular uptake to concentrations relevant to the inhibition of intracellular ice formation, thus presenting a promising lead candidate for further biophysical and cryopreservation studies. Compounds were also evaluated as ice recrystallization inhibitors; however, no detectable activity was observed for the newly tested compounds.
