27. 2-catalyzed C-O coupling reaction. A similar glycosylation of sugar, which was activated by TMS triflate, has been reported. Our proposed mechanism shows that the stability of the ketals (3a and 3c) and TMS ether (TMSOMe and TMSOAc, and TMSOTMS) could be responsible for the difference in the final coupling yields.
