Article abstract of DOI:10.1016/S0040-4039(00)94336-3

Acylated glycos-2-ulosyl bromides give a variety of useful ensuing reactions, preparatively most relevant being their smooth α- and β-selective glycosidation, their reduction to glucosyl bromides with a free 2-OH, and their C-homologation to higher-carbon
