Glycosylation catalyzed by a chiral Bronsted acid.

The use of a chiral Brønsted acid catalyst for the activation of trichloroacetimidate glycosyl donors has been demonstrated for the first time. In toluene the chirality of the acid catalyst is seen to influence the stereochemical outcome of the glycosylation processes, hinting that perhaps diastereo...
