Despite the previous literature describing the "low-to-modest" efficiency, the readily available C5-acetamide donor was reinvestigated for its use in α-sialylation under microfluidic conditions. The N-phenyltrifluoroacetimidate donor was efficiently mixed with an appropriate amount of TMSOTf to produce the α(2-6) and α(2-3)-sialylation products of galactose and glucosamine acceptors in excellent yields and with nearly perfect α-selectivity.

A disialylated tetrasaccharide, Neu5Ac(α2,3)Gal(β1,3)[Neu5Ac(α2,6)]GlcNAc (1), which is found at the termini of some N-glycans, has been synthesized. Compound 1 was obtained through an α-sialylation reaction between a sialic acid donor and a trisaccharide
