title: Synthesis of a potential tetrasaccharide ligand for E-selectin.
abstract: A potential tetrasaccharide ligand for E-selectin, (Na(+-)O(3)SO-3)Galbeta-(1-->4)[Fucalpha-(1-->3)]Glcbeta-(1-->6)Gal, an analogue of the ovarian cystadenoma glycoprotein tetrasaccharide fragment, was synthesized in a highly practical way.
