Yg. Du et al., An efficient and concise regioselective synthesis of alpha-(1 -> 5)-linkedL-arabinofuranosyl oligosaccharides, CARBOHY RES, 329(1), 2000, pp. 17-24
A series of alpha-(1-->5)-linked L-arabinofuranosyl di-, tetra-, hexa- and
octameric derivatives were synthesized efficiently. The process was carried
out in a regio- and stereoselective manner using perbenzoylated arabinofur
anosyl trichloroacetimidates as glycosyl donors and unprotected or partiall
y protected arabinofuranosides as glycosyl accepters in the presence of a c
atalytic amount of trimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate (TMSOTf). (C) 2
