Oligosaccharides and derivatives

Rabbani, S., Schwardt, O. and Ernst, B. (2006) Glycosyltransferases an efficient tool for the enzymatic synthesis of oligosaccharides and derivatives as well as mimetics thereof. Chimia, 60, 23-27. 

IV. Syntheses of Oligosaccharides and Derivatives Corresponding to the Sialyl-Lewis ... 

The present Recommendations deal with the acyclic and cyclic forms of monosaccharides and their simple derivatives, as well as with the nomenclature of oligosaccharides and polysaccharides. They are additional to the Definitive Rules for the Nomenclature of Organic Chemistry [13,14] and are intended to govern those aspects of the nomenclature of carbohydrates not covered by those rules. 

The generic term carbohydrate includes monosaccharides, oligosaccharides and polysaccharides as well as substances derived from monosaccharides by reduction... 

Table 2. Symbols for monosaccharide residues and derivatives in oligosaccharide chains...

The first observations on the stereochemical dependence of spin-lattice relaxation-rates of carbohydrate molecules, beginning in " 1972, provided a general survey of the nonselective relaxation-rates of the anomeric protons of monosaccharide derivatives, oligosaccharides, and some polysaccharides.

These have been effectively used to remove lignin and hydrophobic metabolites from plant-derived samples. Bonded-phase mini-columns are also ideal for the prechromatographic purification of a perbenzoylated sugars, glycopeptides (and derived oligosaccharides), and peralkylated oligosaccharides. ...
