Direct synthesis of the beta-l-rhamnopyranosides.

The direct formation of beta-l-rhamnopyranosides by means of thioglycoside donors protected with a 2-O-sulfonate ester and, ideally, a 4-O-benzoyl ester, is reported. Activation is achieved with the combination of 1-benzenesulfinyl piperidine and triflic anhydride in the presence of 2,4,6-tri-tert-butylpyrimidine. Selectivities vary from moderate to good, and the sulfonyl group is easily removed post-glycosylation with sodium amalgam in 2-propanol.[1]
