An efficient and straightforward synthesis of sialyl Lex glycolipid as a potent selectin blocker[1]
An efficient synthesis of sialyl Lewis X (sLex) glycolipid as a potent selectin blocker is described. 2-(Tetradecyl)hexadecanol which functions as an artificial ceramide, was glycosylated with phenyl 4-O-acetyl-6-O-benzyl-2-deoxy-3-O-(4-methoxy
