title: Organocatalyzed direct glycosylation of unprotected and unactivated carbohydrates.
abstract: Organocatalyzed direct glycosylation of unprotected and unactivated carbohydrates is reported. This process is catalyzed by triphenylphosphine and tetrabromomethane at room temperature under neutral conditions. With this operationally simple protocol thermodynamically favored, glycosides were obtained in a very straightforward reaction.
