React or get capped and tagged! Two capping reagents, designated A-Tag and F-Tag, mark unconverted oligosaccharides during automated synthesis for simple separation from the desired products. A-Tagged molecules are removed by an isocyanate scavenger resin after reduction to the amine, and those with an F-tag by filtration through fluorous silica gel. R=oligosaccharide.
