Highly stereoselective glycosylation by conformational assistance of glycosyl donor

Article abstract of DOI:10.1016/0040-4039(91)80435-9

Highly α-stereoselective glycosylation of 2-deoxy-D-fucose was achieved by use of the conformational assistance of the rigid glycosyl donor 2. The selectivity of the glycosylation of 2 was much higher than that of 3 which had a normal chair conformation.
