Selectin ligands: 2,3,4-tri-O-acetyl-6-O-(2-naphthyl)methyl (NAP) α-d-galactopyranosyl imidate as a novel glycosyl donor for the efficient total synthesis of branched mucin core 2-structure containing the NeuAcα2,3(SO3Na-6)Galβ1,3GalNAcα sequence

Abstract

The stereo- and regioselective total synthesis of branched mucin core 2-structure 2, which contains the NeuAcα- 2,3(SO₃Na-6)Galβ1,3GalNAcα sequence, is accomplished through the use of the key glycosyl donor 19.
