“…Between 1991 and 2012, several other deoxyfluoro-monosaccharide derivatives, either in furanose or pyranose form, were also synthesized using the combined triflate-leaving group/TASF-fluorination method (Fig. 5a) [4, 5,8,15]. Meanwhile, complex bioactive molecules containing a monofluorosugar moiety, such as deoxyfluoro polyhydroxylated trihydroxyindolizidine derivative and deoxyfluoro purine nucleosides, were synthesized successfully (Fig.…”
