• pyranosides with N-acetyl 2,3-trans-carbamate groups exhibited complete anomerization from β-glycoside to α-glycoside in the presence of a weak Lewis acid through an endocyclic cleavage reaction [29][30][31][32][33]. We showed evidence of the endocyclic cleavage reaction by trapping linear cations through

• hand, the corresponding α-isomer of disaccharide 8α was obtained as a major product together with the anomerized donor 9 when the reaction was performed at 0 °C in the absence of DTBMP (Table 3, entry 4). These anomerizations may be caused by the endocyclic cleavage reaction [22][23][24], which is
