The same biological activity as the antigen determinant sialyl Lewis x was shown by the fucopeptide 1 in a binding assay with E‐selectin. In the design of this mimetic the type and spatial arrangement of the functional groups essential for the interaction between sialyl Lewis x and E‐selectin were considered. Fucopeptide 1 , which may have potential as an antiinflammatory agent, was synthesized from L‐fucose. L‐threonine, (2 S ,3 R )‐2‐amino‐3,4‐dihydroxy‐butyric acid, and glutarate.
