A highly stereocontrolled synthesis of 1β,1β-linked acetylated oligosaccharides via orthoester formation-rearrangement

Article abstract of DOI:10.1016/S0040-4039(98)02626-4

1β,1β- Linked acetylated di-, tri-, and tetrasaccharides were synthesized in satisfactory yields and good stereoselectivities by a new method - orthoester formation and rearrangement under mild conditions.
