Abstract:Comprehensive SummaryN,N,N‐Trimethyl‐D‐glucosamine (TMG)‐chitotriomycin, a naturally occurring chitin related oligosaccharide, is a specific β‐N‐acetylhexosaminidases (HexNAcases) inhibitor for insects and fungi. Although TMG‐chitoriomycin holds great promise as a novel class insecticide and fungicide, the limited accessibility of TMG‐chitotriomycin prevents its further biological evaluation. We report herein a simple and eco‐friendly chemoenzymatic approach for the efficient synthesis of TMG‐chitotriomycin an… Show more
