Dimethylthexylsilyl 2-acetamido-3-O-allyl-2-deoxy-6-O-(4-methoxybenzyl)-beta-D-glucopyranoside, dimethylthexylsilyl 3,4,6-tri-O-benzyl-beta-D-mannopyranosyl-(1-->4)-2-acetamido-3-O-allyl-2-deoxy-6-O-(4-methoxybenzyl)-beta-D-glucopyranoside, and dimethylthexylsilyl 2-O-(benzylsulfonyl)-3,4,6-tri-O-benzyl-beta-D-mannopyranosyl-(1-->4)-2-acetamido-3-O-allyl-2-deoxy-6-O-(4-methoxybenzyl)-beta-D-glucopyranoside: synthesis of authentic samples. Dimethylthexylsilyl 2-acetamido-3-O-allyl-2-deoxy-6-O-(4-methoxybenzyl)-beta-D-glucopyranoside was prepared by reduction of the corresponding 4,6-O-(4-methoxybenzylidene) acetal with sodium cyanoborohydride and trifluoroacetic acid. This alcohol was coupled to 2-O-benzoyl-3,4,6-tri-O-benzyl-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl trichloroacetimidate to give a beta-glucoside that was converted to dimethylthexylsilyl 3,4,6-tri-O-benzyl-beta-D-mannopyranosyl-(1-->4)-2-acetamido-3-O-allyl-2-deoxy-6-O-(4-methoxybenzyl)-beta-D-glucopyranoside by saponification, Dess-Martin oxidation, and sodium borohydride reduction. Sulfonylation then gave dimethylthexylsilyl 2-O-(benzylsulfonyl)-3,4,6-tri-O-benzyl-beta-D-mannopyranosyl-(1-->4)-2-acetamido-3-O-allyl-2-deoxy-6-O-(4-methoxybenzyl)-beta-D-glucopyranoside.
