Abstract :
α-D-Arabinofuranosyl-(1®5)-[α-D-arabinofuranosyl-(1®3)]-α-D-arabinofuranosyl-(1®5)-Darabinofuranose(6) present in motif B of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis cell wall was regio- and stereospecifically synthesized by trichloroacetimidate method. The strategy greatly simplified the procedure for synthesizing 6.
