Abstract:
The scope and limitations of imidazolium-based ionic liquids as room temperature glycosylation promoters have been studied. Herein, we report the effects of modifying the structure of the imidazolium cation and how important the choice of counter ion becomes on model glycosylation reactions of thioglycosides at room temperature in the presence of N-iodosuccinimide (NIS).
