Abstract
The native floridoside [2′-O-(α-d-galactopyranosyl)-glycerol], isolated from the red marine alga Rhodymenia palmata, has demonstrated a potent immunostimulating activity. In order to carry out further biological investigations, the synthesis of this compound appeared necessary and is reported here, for the first time.
Key words

References and Notes
Melting points were determined in capillary tubes with a Büchi apparatus and are uncorrected. Optical rotations are measured at 20-25 °C with Perkin-Elmer 341 polarimeter. 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectra were recorded at 25 °C with a Bruker DPX400 spectrometer operating at 400 and 100 MHz, respectively. Assignments were based on homo- and heteronuclear correlations using supplier’s software. Flash column chromatography was performed on silica gel (E. Merck, 40-63 µm). Microanalyses were performed by the department of microanalysis of CNRS (ICSN, Gif sur Yvette, France).

General Procedure for the Glycosylation
A mixture of trichloroacetimidate (600 mg, 0.75 mmol), cis-1,3-O-benzylideneglycerol (315 mg, 1.75 mmol) and activated powdered MS 4 Å in anhyd CH2Cl2 (10 mL) was stirred for 1 h at r.t. under dry N2, then cooled to 0 °C. A solution of TMSOTf in toluene (1 M, 131 µL, 15%) was added, and the mixture was stirred for 30 min at r.t., then was quenched with Et3N, filtered and concentrated. Flash silica gel chromatography (hexane-EtOAc = 3:1, containing 0.1% of Et3N) gave 7 (125 mg, 20%) and 6 (400 mg, 65%).

General Procedure for the Catalytic Hydrogenation
A mixture of compound 8 (300 mg, 0.488 mmol) and Pd/C 10% in EtOAc-MeOH-H2O (4:4:2 mL) was stirred under a H2 atmosphere at r.t. for 18 h. The mixture was filtered, concentrated, and co-evaporated with toluene. The compound was eluted from a column (3.0 × 30 cm) of Sephadex LH-20 with H2O to give 1 (112 mg, 90%) as a white powder.
