title: Synthesis and structure determination of some oxadiazole-2-thione and triazole-3-thione galactosides.
abstract: The syntheses of 5-pyridyl-3(beta-D-galactopyranosyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thiones 3a-3c and 5-pyridyl-2(beta-D-galactopyranosyl)-4-benzyl-1,2, 4-triazole-3-thiones 6a-6c are reported. The existence of N-galactosides--not S-galactosides--was proven by IR and 15N NMR spectroscopy. The structures of the final products and the intermediates were elucidated by IR, 1H, 13C and 15N NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry.
