An efficiently stereocontrolled total synthesis of GM3 α-D-Neup5Ac-(2->3)-β-D-Galp-(1->4)-β-D-Glcp-(1->1)-Cer as achieved by employing both methyl 5-acetamido-4,7,8,9-tetra-O-benzyl-2-bromo-2,3,5-trideoxy-3-phenylthio-D-erythro-β-L-gluco-2-nonulopyranosonate for the key sialylation step, and O--(2->3)-O-(2,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-β-D-galactopyranosyl-(1->4)-3,6-di-O-acetyl-2-O-pivaloyl-α-D-glucopyranosyl trichloroacetimidate and fluoride for the key coupling step with a ceramide derivative.These two steps were significantly altered and improved in comparison with our previous synthesis that had been executed without use of stereocontrolling auxiliaries.GM3 was obtained in 4.5percent overall yield in 19 steps starting from allyl O-(2,6-di-O-acetyl-3,4-O-isopropylidene-β-D-galactopyranosyl)-(1->4)-2,3,6-tri-O-acetyl-β-D-glucopyranoside.
