We report a siloxane-protected donor (7) for the highly stereoselective formation of β-(2,3-cis)-xylulofuranosyl bonds. Glycosylation reactions with 7 gave >80% yields, and only β-xylulofuranosides we
Methyl mannoside 16 containing an allyldimethylsilyl ether at C(2) was synthesized in nine steps from d-mannose. Reaction with TMSOTf in MeCN at room-temperature effected C-glycosylation to provide th
The synthesis of anilides derived from glucuronic acid is described. Secondary anilides had a Z configuration in the solid state and showed intramolecular and intermolecular hydrogen bonding. However,
Substrate for each enzyme should fulfill all the required conditions. For the specific description of glycosidic linkages, refer to glycan structures in Figure 1. ManI: mannosyl-oligosaccharide 1,2-α-
A protected cyclitol aglycon was tethered to an (N-arylsulfonyl)glucosamine donor by a methylene linker; the exclusively α-selective intramolecular glycosyation reaction was then initiated by electrop
