Abstract:
The title tetrasacharide having the structure 3-O-Me-β-
-Xylp-(1→4)--
-Rhap-(1→4)--
-Rhap-(1→2)-
-Rhap was obtained by reaction of the -acetobromo derivative of 4-O-(3-O-methyl-β-
-xylopyranosyl)-
-rhamnopyranose and benzyl 3,4-di-O-benzyl-2-O-(2,3-O-isopropylidene--
-rhamnopyranosyl)--
-rhamnopyranoside, followed by removal of the protecting groups. The synthesised compounds were characterised on the basis of n.m.r. data.
