Abstract

The synthesis of glycosylated Fmoc amino acids by reaction of mono- and disaccharide peracetates with Fmoc amino acids having free carboxyl groups was rapidly promoted by Lewis acids (SnCl₄, BF₃·Et ₂O) under microwave irradiation. The products are useful building blocks for the synthesis of glycopeptides.
