Pentafluoropropionyl (PFP) and trifluoroacetyl (TFA) esters were demonstrated to be useful in facile oligosaccharide synthesis. These were well compatible with glycosylation conditions and removable by treatment with pyridine-EtOH, with complete preservation of acetyl groups. Analytically pure products were obtained quantitatively, simply by evaporating the reaction mixtures. Using O-PFP and O-TFA carrying glycosyl halides, trisaccharide (Manα1→2Manα1→2Man) and tetrasaccharide (Glcα1→3Manα1→2Manα1→2Man) portions of monoglucosylated high-mannose type dodecasaccharide (Glc1Man9GlcNAc2), a putative ligand for the ER chaperon, calnexin and calreticulin, were synthesized.
