Yg. Du et Fz. Kong, The regio- and stereoselective synthesis of rhamnose-containing oligosaccharides via sugar-sugar orthoester formation and rearrangement, J CARB CHEM, 18(6), 1999, pp. 655-666
Convenient regio- and stereoselective syntheses of rhamnose-containing olig
osaccharides via sugar-sugar orthoester formation and rearrangement are des
cribed. 1-->3 Linked rhamno di- and trisaccharides were synthesized effecti
vely using unprotected rhamnose residue as the glycosyl acceptor by this me
thodology.
