4. Figure 2 Site-Divergent Propargylation of Various Monosaccharides
Isolated yields of pure compounds were reported (0.25–1.0 mmol scale). Absolute stereochemical assignments were made by analogy to that of 26a or 28. Ratios (of the two products shown) were determined by 1H NMR analysis. In some cases, small amounts of other isomers were also formed. Product ratios resulting from the use of (±)-L4 are provided in the Supplemental Information. See Supplemental Information for experimental details. Dashed, double-headed arrows indicate diol moieties that could complex with B1. “All” denotes allyl. See Figures S24–S148 for 1D and 2D NMR spectra of the products in this figure.

Condition Optimization for the Propargylation of a Mannose Derivative 18
Yields were determined by 1H NMR analysis with 1,3,5-trimethylbenzene as internal standard unless otherwise noted. Ratios were determined by 1H NMR analysis of the crude reaction mixture. Small amounts of other isomers could also be observed. Entries 7, 8, 12, and 13: 4 Å molecular sieves were added; isolated yields. See Supplemental Information for experimental details. N.D., not determined. See Figures S4–S23 for 1D and 2D NMR spectra of the products in this scheme.
