Synthesis of alpha-tocopheryl disaccharides as potential antiallergic agents
alpha-Tocopheryl disaccharides such as beta-gentiobioside, beta-maltoside, beta-cellobioside, beta-lactoside, beta-melibioside, and beta-isomaltoside were synthesized by biological and chemical glycosylation, and their inhibitory effects on superoxide generation from rat neutrophils were examined.
