Abstract

A facile approach towards the synthesis of 4-nitrophenyl O-alpha-L-fucopyranosyl-(1----3)-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-beta-D-glucopyra nos ide, 2-nitrophenyl O-alpha-L-fucopyranosyl-(1----3)-O-(2-acetamido-2-deoxy-beta-D-glucop yra nosyl)- (1----6)-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-alpha-D-galactopyranoside, 4-nitrophenyl O-alpha-L-fucopyranosyl-(1----3)-O-(2-acetamido-2-deoxy-beta-D-glucop yra nosyl)- (1----6)-alpha-D-mannopyranoside, and 4-nitrophenyl O-alpha-L-fucopyranosyl-(1----3)-O-(2-acetamido-2-deoxy-beta-D-glucop yra nosyl)-(1----6)-beta-D-galactopyranoside has been accomplished through the development and use of methyl 3,4-O-isopropylidene-2-O-(4-methoxybenzyl)-1-thio-beta-L-fucopyranoside as the glycosyl donor.
