Abstract

The condensation of acetohalogeno sugars with unblocked benzyl hexopyranosides gave the 1 → 6 linked disaccharides exclusively and in good yield. The utility of this "open" synthesis was demonstrated by preparation of 6-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-D-glucose (gentiobiose) and of a new disaccharide, 2-acetamido-6-O-(2-acetamido-2-deoxy-β-D-galactopyranosyl)-2-deoxy-D-galactose.
