Synthesis of β-d-arabinofuranosides: stereochemical differentiation between d- and l-enantiomers

The glycosylation of 3,5-O-di-tert-butylsilylene-protected d-thioarabinofuranosides with a range of glycosyl acceptors using NIS/AgOTf as promoters proceeded in a stereoselective manner to give the corresponding β-d-arabinofuranosides in high yields.
