Abstract

Abstract The native floridoside [2′-O-(α-d-galactopyranosyl)-glycerol], isolated from the red marine alga Rhodymenia palmata, has demonstrated a potent immunostimulating activity. In order to carry out further biological investigations, the synthesis of this compound appeared necessary and is reported here, for the first time.
