Used as a glycosylation donor in the synthesis of complex oligosaccharides and glycoconjugates, particularly in the preparation of biologically relevant glycolipids and glycoproteins. The presence of the Cbz-protected aminopropyl linker allows for further conjugation to carrier proteins or solid supports, making it valuable in vaccine development and immunological studies. The acetyl groups act as temporary protecting groups that can be selectively removed to enable sequential sugar coupling. Its β-configuration ensures stereocontrolled formation of glycosidic bonds, which is critical for mimicking natural carbohydrate structures in medicinal chemistry and biochemical research.
