title: Stereoselective synthesis of 2-deoxy-beta-galactosides via 2-deoxy-2-bromo- and 2-deoxy-2-iodo-galactopyranosyl donors.
abstract: [reaction: see text] A series of 2-bromo- and 2-iodo-galactopyranosyl acetates and trichloroacetimidates were evaluated as glycosyl donors for the synthesis of 2-deoxygalactopyranosides. The best selectivity for the beta-glycosidic linkage was achieved by using 6-deoxy-3,4-carbonate-protected galactosyl donors.
