Synthesis of condurite epoxides and aziridines and their use in the synthesis of higher disaccharides

摘要

There are described novel coupling reactions useful for the preparation of cyclitol and/or carbohydrate conjugates and carbocyclic analogs thereof. Such coupling reactions employ epoxides and/or aziridines described herein as electrophilic recipients of other cyclitol or carbohydrate units. Also provided are certain novel compounds.
