title: Synthesis of a phenyl beta-avobioside derivative of the disaccharide component of avoparcins.
abstract: The synthesis of the phenyl beta-glycoside of avobiose, a disaccharide fragment present in the antibiotic avoparcin, is reported. It is based on glycosylation of phenyl 3,4,6-tri-O-benzyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside with 2,3,6-trideoxy-4-O-p-nitrobenzoyl-3-trifluoroacetamido-L-ribo-hex- 1-enitol, a fully protected glycal of L-ristosamine, in the presence of trimethylsilyl triflate.
