Abstract: The driving force for the constant improvement and
development of synthetic methodologies in carbohydrate chemistry is
the importance of natural oligosaccharide chains in numerous biological
phenomena such as cell growth, differentiation, adhesion, etc. Here,
we report our syntheses of the spacer-armed oligosaccharides of sialylated
lacto- and neo- lacto-, globo-, ganglio-,
and sulfoglucuronylparagloboside-series, which include new rationally
designed synthetic blocks, efficient solutions for the stereoselective
construction of glycosidic bonds, and novel protection group strategies.
