Abstract
A disaccharide scaffold based on tunicamycin was synthesized from D-uridine and L-mannose. The key step in disaccharide assembly was a B-mannosylation performed using Crich's modification of the sulfoxide glycosylation method . The scaffold described contains two orthogonal derivatization sites and w ill be used in the search for novel biologically active compounds. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
