“…Moreover, in comparative hydrolytic stability studies, STaz glycosides exhibited even more stability than their 1- S -ethyl and 1- S -phenyl counterparts in the presence of NBS or NIS/TfOH [27, 75]. Studies were conducted to determine whether thiazolinyl 2,3,4,6-tetra- O -benzyl-1-thio-β-D-glucopyranoside 46 could serve as a common precursor toward the synthesis of an array of glycosyl donors [55]. It was found that the STaz glycoside 46 can be directly converted into the following glycosyl donors: acetate 47 , chloride 1 , bromide 48 , fluoride 49 , and hemiacetal 50 in excellent yields (Scheme 12).…”
