Abstract
2-Benzothiazolyl 1-thiofuranosides derivatives of L-arabino-,D-ribo-and D-xylofuranose were synthesized in good yield in a one-pot reaction by treatment of reducing monosaccharides with diphenyl phosphorochloridate and 2-mercaptobenzothiazol under phase-transfer conditions.Their ability to act as glycosyl donors was demonstrated.
Keywords: thiosugars, glycosylation, glycofuranosyl donors, glycofuranosides
