A set of phosphodisaccharides, substrate analogues, which will be used to s
tudy acceptor-substrate specificity of the Leishmania biosynthetic enzymes,
are synthesized using the Koenigs-Knorr and trichloroacetimidate methods f
or the glycosylation reactions, S(N)2 nucleophilic displacement of a trifli
c ester for epimerization, and the glycosyl hydrogenphosphonate method for
phosphorylation.
