Dimethylthexylsilyl 2-acetamido-3-O-allyl-2-deoxy-6-O-(4-methoxybenzyl)-β-d-glucopyranoside was prepared by reduction of the corresponding 4,6-O-(4-methoxybenzylidene) acetal with sodium cyanoborohydride and trifluoroacetic acid. This alcohol was coupled to 2-O-benzoyl-3,4,6-tri-O-benzyl-α-d-glucopyranosyl trichloroacetimidate to give a β-glucoside that was converted to dimethylthexylsilyl 3,4,6-tri-O-benzyl-β-d-mannopyranosyl-(1→4)-2-acetamido-3-O-allyl-2-deoxy-6-O-(4-methoxybenzyl)-β-d-glucopyranoside by saponification, Dess–Martin oxidation, and sodium borohydride reduction. Sulfonylation then gave dimethylthexylsilyl 2-O-(benzylsulfonyl)-3,4,6-tri-O-benzyl-β-d-mannopyranosyl-(1→4)-2-acetamido-3-O-allyl-2-deoxy-6-O-(4-methoxybenzyl)-β-d-glucopyranoside.
