Abstract

We have developed a novel chemoselective glycosylation strategy. This glycosylation strategy is based on the fact that the glycosyl reactivity of an anomeric thiol group can be control by the bulkiness of this group whereby we have produced a new range of differentially reactive coupling substrates. The new approach will enable complex oligosaccharides of biological importance to be prepared in a highly convergent manner.
