Abstract
A novel approach to the synthesis of urea glycosides in aqueous media has been developed. Reaction of Steyermark’s glucosyl carbamate 1 with amines was carried out in water to afford urea glucosides in good yields. This method was successfully applied to develop a new route to the synthesis of urea-tethered neoglycoconjugates and pseudooligosaccharides.
Key words
carbohydrates - glycosylations - glycosides

5 i underwent acetylation (Ac2 O, pyridine, r.t.) to afford triacetate ii . Acetylation of i under more forcing conditions (Ac2 O, NaOAc, refluxed for 1 h) gave N -acetate iii (Scheme 7). See the reference: Kovacs J.
