Abstract
Galactofuranose metabolism is a good target for the development of novel chemotherapeutic agents for the treatment of some microbial infections. A simple procedure for the synthesis of methyl (methyl alpha,beta-D-galactopyranosid)uronate followed by NaB(3)H(4) reduction gave a straightforward access to radiolabeled substrates for galactofuranosidases.
