title: Synthesis of disaccharides related to the mycobacterial arabinogalactan.
abstract: Several novel glycofuranoses disaccharides related to mycobacterial cell wall polysaccharides were synthesized regio- and stereoselectively using 2,3,5-tri-O-benzoyl-alpha-D-arabinofuranosyl trichloroacetimidate as a glycosyl donor.
