Conclusions

Starting with digoxigenin, L-rhamnose, D-glucose, and D-xylose, the monoglycosides digoxigenin-3-α-L-rhamnopyranoside, 3-β-D-glycopyranoside, and 3-β-D-xylopyranoside have been synthesized in approximately 40% yield. The biosides digoxigenin 3,12-di-β-D-glucopyranoside and 3,12-di-β-D-xylopyranoside were also obtained in approximately 3% yield. The glycosides obtained possessed high cardiotonic activity.
