title: Glycosylation with N-Troc-protected glycosyl donors.
abstract: N-Troc-protected (Troc = 2,2,2-trichloroethoxycarbonyl) glucosamine and galactosamine glycosyl donors (1-O-acetyl sugar, bromo sugar, and thioglycoside) were compared with the corresponding N-Phth-protected derivatives in glycosylations of 2-(trimethylsilyl)ethanol, 2-bromoethanol, methyl 3-mercaptopropionate, N-Fmoc-protected serine, and 2-(trimethylsilyl)ethyl 6-O-benzyl-2-deoxy-2-phthalimido-beta-D-glucopyranoside. The N-Troc-protected donors gave pure beta-glycosides in somewhat higher yields than the N-Phth-protected counterparts. The N-Troc protecting group can be removed by reduction with zinc, which allows selective N-deprotection in oligosaccharides containing both N-Troc and N-Phth groups.
