determined by the coupling constants of 1H NMR spectra
and NOE measurements. For details, see Supporting

(5) Resorcylic ester 3 was synthesized as shown below (Scheme
9). For the preparation of the intermediate 24, see: Hadfield,
A.; Schweitzer, H.; Trova, M. P.; Green, K. Synth. Commun.

(10) It is interesting to note that vancosaminyl acetate 4 upon
reaction with excess resorcylic ester 29 (3 molar amounts)
gave mono-C-glycoside 10 and bis-C-glycoside 30 in high
combined yield without formation of the two-fold arylation
product (Scheme 12). In contrast, the reaction of

angolosaminyl acetate 6 with 29 (2 molar amounts) gave
none of the bis-C-glycoside but yielded mono-C-glycoside
31 (28% yield), the two-fold arylation product 32 (12%), and
many other unidentified products of higher molecular
weights. It is therefore obvious that the angolosamine moiety
is much more apt to undergo the two-fold arylation, as
compared with the vancosamine moiety. We surmise the
steric congestion at the C(3) position in the vancosamine
moiety makes it resistant to this unfavorable reaction.

led to the complete recovery of 11 (Scheme 13).
