Methyl 2,3,6-tri-O-Benzoyl-4-O-(tert-butyldimethylsilyl)-β-d-galactopyranoside

Abstract

Methyl 2,3,6-tri-O-benzoyl-4-O-(tert-butyldimethylsilyl)-β-D-galactopyranoside was synthesized in 47% yield by the silylation of a partially benzoylated galactose derivative, prepared from methyl β-D-galactopyranoside. The product was characterized by 1 H-NMR, 13 C-NMR, IR and mass spectrometry.
