It was shown that carbonyl-functionalized mannoside 4 can be linked to branched tris(2-aminoethyl)amine by reductive amination yielding the hexavalent cluster mannoside 6. This method allows doubling of the sugar functions in the coupling step with regard to the number of amino functions given in the core molecule and, therefore it is an attractive tool in the context of glycocluster synthesis.
