Abstractmagnified imageWe report herein the synthesis of 4‐(methoxycarbonyl)phenyl β‐lactoside and eight derivatives modified at C(6) or C(6′). These compounds were evaluated in hemagglutination inhibition assay using the lectin from Erythrina cristagalli. None of the compounds showed enhanced activity as compared to lactose.
