Progress in the Chemistry of C-Glycosylation in Carbohydrates
Abstract: Glycosylation is an intricate biochemical process where a glycosyl donor and a glycosyl acceptor are combined to form a glycoside. This process involves the creation of new stereogenic centers at the anomeric site of the glycosyl donor, leading to the formation of a diverse array of products. By establishing glycosidic linkages, the synthesis of complex polysaccharides becomes possible, opening doors to the creation of analogues for further exploration of their …
