Received (in XXX, XXX) Xth XXXXXXXXX 20XX, Accepted Xth XXXXXXXXX 20XX DOI: 10.1039/b000000x The use of (salen)Co catalysts as a new class of bench-stable stereoselective glycosylation promoters of trichloroacetimidate glycosyl donors at room temperature is described. The conditions are practical and do not require the use of molecular sieves with products being isolated in good to high yields.

Access to structurally defined oligosaccharides in sufficient amounts to be used as probes for biological research, still represents a significant challenge due to the structural complexity of carbohydrates. The stereoselective coupling of glycosides is often considered the main bottleneck towards this goal and despite significant efforts devoted to the development of efficient glycosylation strategies, there is still a need for robust and practical methods to achieve this crucial step.1 Transition metal catalysis applied to oligosaccharide synthesis offers great promise at achieving high yields and anomeric selectivities by the careful choice of the metal and ligands attached to the metal centre.2
