Stereoselective sulfoxidation of α-mannopyranosyl thioglycosides: the exo-anomeric effect in action

Abstract
As a consequence of the exo-anomeric effect, and in contrast to their β-anomers, α-thioglycosides undergo stereoselective oxidation to give very predominantly the R-sulfoxides, as revealed by X-ray crystallography.
