The stereocontrol of glycosylations was achieved by means of the H-bond-mediated aglycone delivery (HAD). The method was utilized for the synthesis of a tetrasaccharide linkedviaβ-(1 → 3)-mannuronic linkages. We have also investigated 3,6-lactonized glycosyl donors that provided moderate to high β-manno stereoselectivity in glycosylations. A method to achieve complete α-manno stereoselectivity with mannuronic acid donors equipped with 3-O-benzoyl group is also reported.Mahidol UniversityBiochemistry, Genetics and Molecular BiologyChemistryA versatile approach to the synthesis of glycans containing mannuronic acid residuesArticleSCOPUS10.1039/d1ob00188d
