arbonyl group for its versatile deprotection methods. Treatment of 20 with NaHCO3
in MeOH, followed by di-tert-butyl dicarbonate gave desymmetric N-benzyl-N-tert- butoxy protected glucosamine thioglycoside 22 in 76% yield. Unfortunately, subsequent glycosylation of 22 with acceptor 7 was characterized by the cleavage of the N-substituent, and the main compound recovered was the amine 23. The amine 23 was further acylated to 24 for characterizations. After searching literatures, we found that the experimental result was similar with Boullanger’s work, and the formation of 23 could be due to removal of one of the carbamate protons from the intermediate A (Scheme 20) to form isobutylene together with 23. Boullanger et al. conducted a study on the glycosylation of simple acceptor alcohols with various N-alkoxycarbonyl derivatives of glucosamine. Their investigation inspired us to adopt the benzyloxycarbonyl group to protect the secondary amine in glucosamine derivative 20.
Again, treatment of 20 with NaHCO3 in MeOH, followed by benzyloxycarbonyl chloroformate gave desymmetric N-benzyl-N-benzyloxycarbonyl (N-BnCbz) protected glucosamine thioglycoside 25 in high yield of 82%. Subsequent glycosylation of 25 with primary alcohol 7 gave the -glycoside 26 in 88% yield (Scheme 19). Although the yields of 25 and 26 were satisfactory and their preliminary

identifications were evidenced by HRMS, the assignments of NMR spectra were difficult due to the peak broadening of the resonance signals. After searching literatures, we found that the peak broadening phenomenon was quite similar with Lafont’s research.91 The 1H NMR spectrum of N-acetyl-N-allyloxycarbonyl protected glucosamine derivative A (Figure 6) revealed the presence of two conformers (45:55).
They pointed that this observation could be due to the restricted rotations around the amide bond, and the coalescence of signals appeared when the temperature was increased. Compared to our study, the 1H NMR spectrum was unclear at room temperature. When the temperature was raised, the broadened peaks became sharp at 100 oC as shown in Figure 7 (ca VT-NMR from 30 to 100 oC in deuterated DMSO solvent). This phenomenon could also be attributed to the restricted rotations around the amide bond based on our VT-NMR spectra and Lafont’s research. Although we could get clear spectrum at elevated temperature of 100 oC, it was unpractical since the operation of NMR machine at such elevated temperature were quite time-spending and laborious. We predicted that the broadening of resonance signal was resulted from the presence of the carbamate function. In order to prove our predictions, the Cbz protecting group was removed under mild conditions (Scheme 19).92 Consistent with our reasoning, the broadening phenomenon was disappeared, and the clear NMR spectrum of -glycoside 27 (data were shown in experimental section) could be obtained at room temperature.

2.7 Glycosylation studies of the glucosamine acceptor 25
After characterizations of the desymmetric N-BnCbz protected glucosamine 25, the next step was glycosylation studies of the acceptor 26 with thioglycosides 11, 12, 28, and 29 (Table 11). Glycosylations of 26 with thioglactopyranosides 11, 28, and 29 furnished the expected Gal--(1→3)-GlcNAc (type 2 LacNAc) disaccharides 3032 in high (73-80%) yields (Table 11, entries 13). The coupling of thiofucopyranoside

12 and acceptor 26 led to the Fuc--(1→3)-GlcNAc disaccharide 33 which is the backbone of type 1 Lewis antigens in high yield of 93% (Table 11, entry 4). All the glycosylations proceeded smoothly and the yields were satisfactory. The peak broadening was also occurred in the NMR spectroscopy of disaccharides 3033. We tried in vain to remove the Cbz protecting group in disaccharide 30 using the same condition which was feasible for monosaccharide 26 (Scheme 21). The reason is not clear at this stage.

2.8 Hydrogenolysis of oxazolidinone protected disaccharides
Hence, the Pd-catalyzed hydrogenolysis method may be another choice for the removal of Cbz protecting groups. At the same time, O-benzyl ethers and N-benzyl groups could be removed simultaneously during hydrogenolysis reaction.
Consequently, the conditions for the total debenzylations in the presence of Cbz protecting groups were optimized. We used glucosamine derivative 26 as a model to study hydrogenolysis reactions and the results were shown in Table 12.

a Judged from TLC plates. b After acetylation, we got the low mass data.
At first, hydrogenolysis of monosaccharide 26 did notproceed over 10% Pd/C in solvent mixtures of MeOH/AcOH (10:1), THF/H2O (4:1), and THF/H2O/AcOH (8:2:1) at room temperature (Table 12, entries 1, 4 and 5).70 Incomplete deprotections were observed and a series of spots were noted on the TLC plate, and changing the solvent mixture to MeOH/HCOOH (10:1), EtOH/HCOOH (10:1), and THF/H2O/HCOOH (8:2:1) did not give the desired product either. After these failures, we took a step back to do a search hoping for finding the solutions to overcome this problem. We found that 20 % Pd(OH)2 catalyst was used for the removal of N-benzyl groups, maybe it would fulfill all our requirements for total debenzylations along with the removal of Cbz protecting group. Hydrogenolysis reactions of monosaccharide 26 were not successful even over 20 % Pd(OH)2 in solvent system of AcOH, MeOH/AcOH (10:1), EtOAc/H2O/AcOH (2:1:4) at room temperature (Table 12, entries 79).93,94 Eventually, the hydrogenolysis temperature was best performed at 60
oC.74 After raising the temperature to 60 oC, the deprotection was achieved (Table 12, entry 10). To our delight, we applied the optimized condition to disaccharides 30 and 33. As shown in Scheme 22, both of their hydrogenolysis reactions worked well in solvent mixture of EtOAc/H2O/AcOH (the ratio was based on the solubility of disaccharide) over 20% Pd(OH)2 under 1 atm H2 at 60 oC. For NMR characterization, the resulting debenzylated products were further acetylated to produce the type 1 LacNAc glycoside 35 and the peracetyl Fuc--(1→3)-GlcNAc disaccharide 36 which was similar to part of Lewis Y structure.

2.9 Synthesis of disaccharides using desymmetric aminoprotecting strategy
At present, we had developed the desymmetric aminoprotecting strategy. The scope of investigation included the installation, deprotection, and application to glycosylations. At this stage, we focused on the removal of the oxazolidinone ring in disaccharide 16. It seemed that basic condition (t-BuOK/DMSO) at room temperature would be practical (Table 10, entry 5), but it didn’t proceed. The reaction outcome was not reproducible, and more intriguingly, the installation of Cbz protecting group failed when the residue was treated with NaHCO3 in MeOH, followed by benzyloxycarbonyl chloroformate (Scheme 23). What we could do was using the other basic conditions (1,4-dioxane/1M NaOH, v/v = 1:1) which was also feasible for the monosaccharide 19 (Table 10, entry 4). Fortunately, the removal of the oxazolidinone ring was successful and further installation of Cbz protecting group furnished desymmetric protected disaccharide 38 in high yield.

2.10 Synthesis of trisaccharide 41 via one-pot glycosylation and deprotection
After some experimentation, the key component of disaccharide 38 was finally obtained. To investigate its chemical properties, 38 was coupled with primary alcohol 7 using NIS/Lewis acid promoter system (Table 13). At first, coupling of 38 and 7 gave desired product 39 in 86% yield (Table 13, entry 1). However, further glycosylation of 39 with fucosyl thioglycoside 12 gave undesired N-succinimide side product. Then we decided to change the Lewis acid to TfOH as the promoter, most disaccharides 38 were not activated at 60 oC, but we got the desired product 39 in 88% yield after raising the temperature to 50 oC (Table 13, entries 2 and 3).
According to the experimental results in Table 13, the NIS/TfOH promoter system was employed in further glycosylation with fucosyl thioglycosides 12. According to our retrosynthetic analysis, glycosylation of 39 with 12 should give the Lewis Y tetrasaccharide; however, we obtained the trisaccharide glycosylation product 40 even using 4 equiv of fucosyl thioglycoside and 1.2 equiv of TfOH.

Owing to the phenomenon of resonance peak broadening for 40, its preliminary identification was evidenced by mass spectroscopy. In addition, the one-pot deprotection by hydrogenolysis reaction was useful for the trisaccharide 40 by using the Pd(OH)2 catalyst (Degussa type) at room temperature instead of 60 oC. For further characterizations of the structure, the resulting debenzylated product was acetylated to produce the peracetyl Fuc--(1→3)-Gal--(1→4)-GlcNAc trisaccharide 41 which constitutes part of the H blood group substrate. In this stage, we have synthesized the trisaccharide glycosylation product 40 by stepwise glycosylation. Subsequently, synthesis of 40 from 38 was attempted. Fortunately, we obtained the trisaccharide 40 in 55% yield by one-pot glycosylation reaction (Scheme 24). It was a pity that the 3-OH group in the GlcNAc could not be glycosylated with the fucosyl thioglycoside to give Lewis Y oligosaccharide probably because of the steric hindrance.

3. Conclusion
In summary, the joined use of N-benzyl oxazolidinoe and N-BnCbz desymmetric amino protection is a versatile strategy for protection of 2-amino sugars. We have used oxazolidinone protected thioglucosamines which have lower anomeric reactivity as acceptors in reactivity-based chemoselective glycosylation. In addition, we have developed the desymmetric N-BnCbz protecting group including its installation, deprotection, and application in oligosaccharides synthesis. Disaccharides such as type 1 LacNAc, type 2 LacNAc, Fuc-a-(1→3)-GlcNAc, and Fuc-a-(1→4)-GlcNAc and trisaccharides H blood group substrate were synthesized based on this strategy.
Moreover, one-pot global deprotection by hydrogenolysis reaction was also developed for both disaccharide and trisaccharide. Further application of this strategy such as Lewis Y tetrasaccharide synthesis is under investigations.
4. Experimental 4.1 General procedures
Chemicals were purchased as reagent grade from commercial venders and used without further purification. All of solvents were dried and distilled by standard techniques unless mentioned.Optical rotations were measured with the JASCO DIP-1000 polarimeter at 30˚C. Flash column chromatography was performed over silica gel 60 (70230 mesh, E. Merck). NMR spectra were recorded with the Brüker console, Varian Unity-300 and Varian Unity-500. Chemical shifts are reported in ppm relative to internal tetramethylsilane (δ = 0.00 ppm) for 1H and 13C resonance signal of CDCl3 (δ = 77.00 ppm) for 13C NMR spectra. Coupling constant(s) in hertz (Hz) were derived from 1H NMR spectra.
4.2 General procedure for glycosylations
Glycosyl donor (8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 27 or 28), glycosyl acceptor (4 or 26), and activated 4 Å MS (100mg/1mL DCM, AW300) in CH2Cl2 were stirred at room temperature under nitrogen for 20 min. The mixture was then cooled in a cooling bath followed by addition of TMSOTf and NIS. After disappearance of acceptor detected by TLC, the mixture was diluted with CH2Cl2, quenched by Et3N, and few droplets of sat. NaHCO3 and excess of Na2S2O3(s) were added, removed from cooling bath, and then stirred at room temperature for 2h. The quenching mixture was then stirred at room temperature for 2h, filtered and finally concentrated. The residue was purified by column chromatography over silica gel to give 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 30, 31, 32 or 33.
The stoichiometric amounts of substrates and reagents were listed below (Table 13).
