Upon global deprotection, a collection of well-defined oligoxylans with 4–10 monosaccharide units was obtained [205]. A convergent approach was also employed to prepare a β

Similarly, trichloroacetimidate and thioglycoside donors permitted the synthesis of short COS [254]. Upon assembly, the N-Phth PGs
