toluene and the residue was dissolved in EtOAc (200 mL)
and washed with water (150 mL) and brine (150 mL). The
aqueous layers were reextracted with EtOAc (2 × 250 mL)
and the combined organic solvents were dried and concen-
trated. The crude product was purified by chromatography
on silica gel (1:0 to 95:5 CHCl3–MeOH) to yield hemiacetal

A suspension of imidate 17 (8.87 g, 11 mmol) in anhydr.
CH2Cl2 (140 mL) containing 4 Å activated molecular sieves
(8.0 g) was stirred under Ar at room temperature for 1 h and
was then cooled down to – 45 °C. Allyl alcohol (1.55 mL,
23 mmol, 2 equiv.) and BF3·Et2O (920 µL, 3.4 mmol,
3.2 equiv.) were added to the suspension and the mixture
was allowed to reach –10 °C over 2 h. Triethylamine
(200 µL) was added and after additional stirring (20 min) at
room temperature, the molecular sieves were filtered off.
The filtrate was diluted with CH2Cl2 (250 mL) and washed
with brine (250 mL). The aqueous layer was reextracted
with CH2Cl2 (3 × 100 mL) and the combined organic solu-
tions were dried and concentrated. The residue was submit-
ted to chromatography on neutral alumina (1:2, 1:1, 3:1, 5:1,
then 1:0, EtOAc–cyclohexane) to give the thiodisaccharide
