title: Thioglycosides protected as trans-2,3-cyclic carbonates in chemoselective glycosylations.
abstract: Thioglycosides protected as trans-2,3-cyclic carbonates have significantly lower anomeric reactivities than fully acylated and N-acyl-protected thioglycosides and can be used as acceptors in chemoselective glycosylations with a wide range of thioglycosyl donors. The resulting thioglycosides can be further activated to give 1,2-cis-linked glycosides. [reaction: see text]
