A convenient synthesis of lacto-N-biose I [β-D-Galp-(1 → 3)-β-D-GlcpNAc] linkd oligosaccharides from phenyl O-(tetra-O-acetyl-β-D-galactopyranosyl)-(1 → 3)-4,6-di-O-acetyl-2-deoxy-2-phthalmido-1-thio-β-D-glucopyranoside

The synthesis of two tetrasaccharides and one trisaccharide containing lacto-N-biose I (β-D-Galp(1 → 3)-β-D-GlcpNAc) as their terminal unit was accomplished through development and utilization of a key glycosyl donor, namely, phenyl O-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-ace
