title: Synthesis of beta-D-arabinofuranosides: stereochemical differentiation between D- and L-enantiomers.
abstract: The glycosylation of 3,5-O-di-tert-butylsilylene-protected d-thioarabinofuranosides with a range of glycosyl acceptors using NIS/AgOTf as promoters proceeded in a stereoselective manner to give the corresponding beta-D-arabinofuranosides in high yields.
