Abstract
The invention concerns a method for preparing Laminaribiose comprising a step for glycoside binding between a donor and an acceptor of glycosyl. The invention is characterized in that the glycosyl donor is in pyranose form and corresponds to formula (II); the glycosyl acceptor is in furanose form and corresponds to formula (III); said binding step is performed in solution in an anhydrous organic solvent, at a temperature ranging between −80° C. and 40° C., for a time interval ranging between 1 minute and 8 hours, in the presence of a suitable promoter.
