Abstract

Galactofurans are an important structural constituent of arabinogalactan and lipopolysaccharides (LPS) ubiquitously present on the envelopes of all Mycobacteria. Key to the automated glycan assembly (AGA) of linear galactofuranosides as long as 20-mers was the identification of thioglycoside building blocks with a fine balance of stereoelectronic and steric effects to ensure the stability of oligogalactofuranoside during the synthesis. A benzoylated galactofuranose thioglycoside building block proved most efficient for oligosaccharide construction.
