Synthetic Approaches Involved in the Preparation of Aryl C-Glycosides

Abstract

Aryl C-glycosides are the most important class of carbohydrates that display various biological activities. They are of mainly two types, namely 2-hydroxyaryl C-glycosides and aryl 2-deoxy-C-glycosides. In this short review, various methods of synthesis of aryl C-glycosides, including via cross-coupling reactions, electrophilic reactions, free radical reactions, intramolecular O→C rearrangements, cyclization, umpolung strategy, etc., have been outlined © 2021, Trends in Carbohydrate Research.All Rights Reserved.
