The thesis entitled ‘Studies of NIS Mediated Cyclopropane Ring Opening Reactions in Carbohydrate Chemistry’ is divided into four chapters. Chapter 1: Section 1: Efficient Synthesis of Fused Perhydrofuro[2,3-b]pyrans ...

Carbohydrates are functionally rich biomolecules with multiple hydroxy functionalities. As a result, the most often practiced chemical route is to install protecting groups that permit selective functionalization at the ...

Allylic halogenation of allyl glycosides as a new route to allyl glycoside donors in glycosylations is investigated in this thesis. Allyl functionality is one of the commonly adopted protecting groups to hydroxyl groups ...

This report concerns the development of a synthetic approach towards synthesis of seven-membered septanosides, such as, substituted oxepanes from protected 2-hydroxyglycals. Important precursors to the synthesis of the ...
