Abstract
A new, stereospecific synthesis of beta-mannosides from glucose-derived 1,2 -orthoester has been developed using a simple four-step procedure. For the synthesis of beta-D-Man-(1-->6)-D-Gal, a 6-OH free galactose derivative was glycosylated with the orthoester to yield beta-D-Glc-(1-->6)-D-Gal; the Gl c unit of which was epimerized into the beta-mannoside in good yield.
