The capsular polysaccharide (CPS) is a major virulence factor of the pathogenic Acinetobacter baumannii and a promising target for vaccine development. However, the synthesis of the 1,2-cis-2-amino-2-deoxyglycoside core of CPS remains challenging to date. Here we develop a highly α-selective ZnI2-me...
