The 12 Principles of Green Chemistry act as a guide for chemists for the design and synthesis of sustainable product. Adoption by chemist is essential for the transition. We chose...
We report the simultaneous reduction of the 2-position and oxidation of the anomeric position in several protected furanosyl and pyranosyl sugar derivatives, mediated through NHC catalysis. This reaction allows the one-step access to highly valuable 2-deoxy-sugars from abundant 2-oxygenated sugar derivatives.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
