The use of a bifunctional cinchona/thiourea organocatalyst for the direct and α-stereoselective glycosylation of 2-nitrogalactals is demonstrated for the first time. The conditions are mild, practical, and applicable to a wide range of glycoside acceptors with products being isolated in good to excellent yields. The method is exemplified in the synthesis of mucin type Core 6 and 7 glycopeptides.

Alpha rules: A thiourea acts as an efficient organocatalyst for the glycosylation of protected galactals to form oligosaccharides containing a 2-deoxymonosaccharide moiety (see scheme). The reaction is highly stereoselective for α-linkages and proceeds by way of a syn-addition mechanism. Copyright

A new and efficient approach to the total synthesis of 2′-deoxy-α-galactosyl glycosphingolipids was accomplished. Commercially available 3,4,6-tri-O-acetylgalactal was used as the chiral starting material for both the sugar and phytosphingosine building blocks required for the synthesis of 1-O-(2-deoxy-α-D-galactopyranosyl)-2-docosanoylamino-1,3, 4-octadecanetriol. The key step of the synthetic strategy was the stereoselective α-glycosidation of the azido precursor of sphingosine.
