A unique overview of the most important protecting group strategies in carbohydrate chemistry

Protecting Groups: Strategies and Applications in Carbohydrate Chemistry provides a detailed account of key strategies and methodologies for the protection of carbohydrates. Divided into two parts, the first focuses on groups that are used best to protect a specific position on a carbohydrate. In the second part, specific carbohydrate residues or compounds are discussed in the context of a specific protecting group strategy used to reach the desired regioisomer. This important book:

-Features chapters on protecting groups at the primary and secondary positions of carbohydrates
-Describes protecting group strategies towards sialic acid derivatives, glycofuranoses, sulfated glycosaminoglycans, and cyclodextrins
-Provides information on automated glycan assembly
-Includes a chapter on the industrial scale synthesis of heparin analogs

Written by a team of leaders in the field, Protecting Groups: Strategies and Applications in Carbohydrate Chemistry is an indispensable guide for academics and industrial researchers interested in carbohydrate and natural product synthesis, pharmaceutical chemistry, and biochemistry.


Sébastien Vidal, PhD, holds a CNRS position at the University of Lyon, France. His main area of research is the design of glycoclusters for anti-adhesive strategy against bacterial infections and enzyme inhibitors targeting glycogen phosphorylase with applications in type-2 diabetes. In 2014, he was given the young investigator award 'Prix du Groupe Français des Glycosciences'.
