Abstract

A new practical, catalytic, and highly stereoselective method for directly accessing 1,1-α,α'-linked 2-deoxy trehalose analogues via AuCl 3-catalyzed dehydrative glycosylation using hemiacetal glycosyl donors and acceptors is described. The method relies on the chemoselective Brønsted acid-type activation of tribenzylated 2-deoxy hemiacetals in the presence of other less reactive hemiacetals.
