Stereoselective synthesis of β-1-O-acyl derivatives of carbohydrates: An application of the cesium effect

Article abstract of DOI:10.1016/0040-4039(92)88116-M

The stereoselective formation of anomerically pure 1-O-acyl derivatives of protected carbohydrates is achieved by reaction of the α-glycosyl halogenoses with cesium caboxylates.
