Synthesis of novel di‐ and trisaccharides using enzymatic glycosylation, Dess–Martin oxidation and reductive amination allows rapid access to the target structures. Thus, a novel class of glycomimetics was obtained having nitrogen inserted as bridging atom between two non‐anomeric positions. Novel di‐ and trisaccharide mimetics were designed using N ‐acetylglucosamine as a basis structure. A third monosaccharide unit was attached via an unnatural sugar–sugar bond without participation of the anomeric center. Their synthesis, proceeding via oxidation, glycosylation and reductive amination, required only a few steps, thus allowing rapid access to the target structures. Generation of the novel pseudo‐disaccharide was achieved by Dess–Martin oxidation and a subsequent reductive amination. (© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2007)
