Toward synthesis of the regular sequence of heparin: synthesis of two tetrasaccharide precursors

Two fully protected tetrasaccharides, which represent precursors for the synthesis of the regular sequence of heparin, were synthesized via coupling of a pair of disaccharide trichloroacetimidates with a thioglycoside and a glucosamine derivative, respectively, in a sequential manner.
