Polysaccharides are a class of bio-macromolecules with highly complex structures that are
widely found in living organisms such as microorganisms, plants and animals …

A new, efficient synthesis of oligosaccharides, which involves solid‐phase reactions without
mixing in combination with an orthogonal‐glycosylation strategy, is described. Despite a …

Dieser Aufsatz beschreibt anhand konkreter Beispiele die grundlegenden Konzepte, die
sich in unserer Arbeitsgruppe über viele Jahre auf der Suche nach neuen chemischen …

Stage-specific embryonic antigens (SSEAs) are carbohydrate markers that have diverse
roles in embryonic development. However, the exact roles of SSEAs remain unclear. To …

A mild, regioselective deprotection of the anomeric O-benzyl from multi-functionally
protected carbohydrates via catalytic transfer hydrogenation is described. The protocol is …

The first synthesis of a homologous series of cellulose analogs, 3-O-benzyl-2, 6-di-O
pivaloyl derivatives and 2, 3, 6-tri-O-acetyl derivatives up to an eicosamer was achieved …

Cationic metallocene species, generated from Cp2MCl2 and AgClO4 (M= Zr, Hf), were used
for the glycosylation of catechin derivative, enabling a concise synthesis of a glycosyl …

Glycogen-storage-disease-relating linear tetra-, hexa-, and octasaccharides of D-glucose
having α (1→ 4) and α (1→ 6) linkages were synthesized using a stereoselective …

A novel ganglioside bearing Neuα2-3Gal and Neuα2-6Gal structures as distal sequences
was designed as a ligand for influenza A viruses. The efficient synthesis of the designed …

Phthaloyl (Phth) is a valuable amino-protecting group for use in synthetic carbohydrate
chemistry. Its strong 1, 2-trans-directing nature in a glycosylation reaction, when it is …
