Abstract
Preactivation-based chemoselective glycosylation is a powerful strategy for oligosaccharide synthesis with its successful application in assemblies of many complex oligosaccharides. However, difficulties were encountered in reactions where glycosyl donors bearing multiple electron-withdrawing groups failed to glycosylate hindered unreactive acceptors. In order to overcome this problem, it was discovered that the introduction of electron-donating protective groups onto the glycosyl donors can considerably enhance their glycosylating power, leading to productive glycosylations even with unreactive acceptors. This observation is quite general and can be extended to a wide range of glycosylation reactions, including one-pot syntheses of chondroitin and heparin trisaccharides. The structures of the reactive intermediates formed upon preactivation were determined through low-temperature NMR studies. It was found that for a donor with multiple electron-withdrawing groups, the glycosyl triflate was formed following preactivation, while the dioxalenium ion was the major intermediate with a donor bearing electron-donating protective groups. As donors were all cleanly preactivated prior to the addition of the acceptors, the observed reactivity difference between these donors was not due to selective activation encountered in the traditional armed-disarmed strategy. Rather, it was rationalized by the inherent internal energy difference between the reactive intermediates and associated oxacarbenium ion like transition states during nucleophilic attack by the acceptor.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
