Herein, we describe a practical protocol for the removal of alcohol functional groups through
reductive cleavage of their benzoate ester analogs. This transformation requires a strong …

Glucose and its polyhydroxy saccharide analogs are complex molecules that serve as
essential structural components in biomacromolecules, natural products, medicines, and …

Unprotected 3-keto-saccharides have become readily accessible via site-selective
oxidation, but their protection-free functionalization is relatively unexplored. Here we show …

Regioselective functionalization of unprotected carbohydrates at a secondary OH group in
the presence of primary OH groups based on the commonly used organotin-mediated …

A catalytic amount of FeCl3 combined with benzoyl trifluoroacetone (Hbtfa)(FeCl3/Hbtfa=
1/2) was used to catalyze sulfonylation/acylation of diols and polyols using …

This work reports stannous chloride (SnCl2)-catalyzed regio-/site-selective acylation with
unusually broad substrate scope. In addition to 1, 2-and 1, 3-diols and glycosides containing …

Out of 42 naturally occurring monosaccharides, only seven are abundant in Nature (glucose,
galactose, mannose, fructose, xylose, ribose, and l-arabinose), while the others have been …

The palladium‐catalyzed oxidation of glucopyranosides has been investigated using
relativistic density functional theory (DFT) at ZORA‐BLYP− D3 (BJ)/TZ2P. The complete …

Control of site selectivity is an exciting direction for synthetic organic chemistry owing to the
possibility of selective modification of multifunctionalized molecules, ultimately including …

A Co (I) catalyst bearing a phenanthroline-based PNNP ligand (2, 9-bis
((diphenylphosphanyl) methyl)-1, 10-phenanthroline) exhibits long-range metal ligand …
