Radical halogenation-mediated latent-active glycosylations of allyl glycosides

Article abstract of DOI:10.1039/c7cc07332a

Radical halogenation-mediated glycosylation using allyl glycosides as donors and as acceptors emerges to be an efficient and hither-to unknown glycosylation method, adhering to the concept of the latent-active methodology. Several di- and trisaccharides that possess the allyl moiety at their reducing end are prepared through this new glycosylation methodology.
