ABSTRACT
Methods for the construction of naphthalene oligodeoxy disaccharide fragments, common structural elements of the angucycline antibiotics, are investigated. The triphenylphosphonium bromide- or scandium triflate-catalyzed addition of rhodinal to 4-OH silyl-protected olivoses affords the required 3-O-α-oligodeoxy disaccharides selectively and in high yields.
