The invention relates to a new method of preparation of a hyaluronan derivative with an aldehydic group in the position (6) of the polysaccharide glucosamine part. The hyaluronic acid oxidation can be performed by means of TEMPO/NaCIO or TEMPO/TCC systems in a protic environment with or without the presence of anorganic salts. Thus prepared aldehyde can be used for binding amines, diamines, amino acids, peptides and other compounds containing an amino group, e.g. by means of the reductive amination with NaBHCN in water or in a water-organic solvent system. When a diamine or compounds containing three or more amino groups are used, cross-linked hyaluronan derivatives can be prepared. Cross-linked derivatives can be also prepared by a reaction of the aldehyde with a hyaluronan substituted by an amino-alkyl group HA-alkyl-NH.

Method of preparation of an oxidized derivative of hyaluronic acid and a method of modification thereof

The invention relates to a hyaluronic acid derivative and methods of preparation and modification of a hyaluronan derivative with an aldehydic group in the position (6) of the polysaccharide glucosamine part. The oxidation of the hyaluronic acid can be performed by means of Dess-Martin periodinane (DMP) agent. The prepared aldehyde can be used for binding amine, diamine, amino acid, peptide and other compounds containing an amino group, e.g. by means of the reductive amination with NaBHCN in water or in a water-organic solvent system. When a diamine or compounds containing three or more amino groups are used, cross-linked hyaluronan derivatives can be prepared. Cross-linked derivatives can also be prepared by the reaction of the aldehyde with a hyaluronan substituted by an amino-alkyl group HA-alkyl-NH.
