Abstract
An α-selective galactosylation was demonstrated under various conditions. Among these α-galactoside approaches, high α-selectivity was achieved by the virtue of 4,6-O-di-tert-butylsilylene (DTBS) group. Yield was further improved by the influence of a 2-O-benzylated donor compared to 2-O-benzoylated donor. This method was then applied to the first highly stereoselective synthesis of a newly found trisaccharide glycosphingolipid in Zygomycetes species.
