Lajm. Sliedregt et al., POTENTIAL USEFULNESS OF 4-NITROPHENYLTHIO-BETA-D-GLYCOSIDES IN THE CHEMOSELECTIVE SYNTHESIS OF OLIGOSACCHARIDES, Proceedings of the Indian Academy of Sciences. Chemical sciences, 106(5), 1994, pp. 1213-1224
Condensation of 4-nitrophenylthio D-glycosyl accepters with ethylthio
D-glycosyl donors. in the presence of thiophilic promoters IDCP and NI
S/TfOH, according to the ''latent-active'' principle proposed by Roy e
t al, did not proceed in all cases as expected. On the other hand, rep
lacement of the ethylthio function by an n-pentenyloxy group shows pro
mise for the future chemoselective assembly of oligosaccharides.
