p-Nitrophenyl glycosides of 3-O-Me-beta-D-Glcp-(1 --> 3)-alpha-L-Rhap,
alpha-L-Rhap-(1 --> 2)-6-deoxy-alpha-L-Talp, and 3-O-Me-beta-D-Glcp-(
1 --> 3)-alpha-L-Rhap-(1 --> 2)-6-deoxy-alpha-L-Talp have been prepare
d, related to Mycobacterium avium. Various glycosylation methods have
been used for the formation of the interglycosidic linkages. The p-nit
rophenyl derivatives were converted into p-isothiocyanatophenyl glycos
ides, capable of forming neoglycoproteins. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science L
