Abstract:
A simple, efficient, and practical method for the synthesis of C-2 deoxy-2-iodo glycoconjugates in self-assembled structures was found using PhI(OCOR)2. 2-Iodo glycoserinyl esters were intramolecularly converted into 2-iodo serinyl glycosides which upon dehalogenation gave C-2 deoxy amino acid glycoconjugates.
