Stereo- and Site-Selective Acylation in Carbohydrate Synthesis

Abstract

Carbohydrates are synthetically challenging molecules with vital biological roles in all living systems. To better understand the biological functions of this fundamentally important class of molecules, novel methodologies are needed, including site-selective functionalization and glycosylation reactions. This account describes our efforts toward the development of novel methodologies for site-selective functionalization of carbohydrates and stereoselective glycosylation through various acylation reactions.

Keywords

carbohydrate - esterification - catalysis - site-selective functionalization - stereoselective
