The synthesis of disaccharides containing α-linked GlcNAc or β-linked ManNAc units from shelf-stable, and yet highly reactive, 2-oximinoglycosyl donors is described. Access to a preponderance of the disaccharide containing either the α-linked GlcNAc or β-linked ManNAc unit can be obtained by careful choice of solvent and glycosidation conditions.
