Rigid spacers : Optimal highly potent divalent ligands of the P. aeruginosa lectin LecA have been prepared. The ligands consist of a rigid spacer derived from glucose–triazole units (see figure). Systematic variation of the number of spacer units and the aglycon linker led to a 7500‐fold enhancement in potency.
