  2. 1. Dynamic Sulfur Chemistry : Screening, Evaluation and Catalysis

    Author : Rémi Caraballo; Olof Ramström; Nicolas Giuseppone; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Dynamic combinatorial chemistry; dynamic sulfur chemistry; thioglycoside; mutarotation; disulfide metathesis; hemithioacetal formation; 1H STD-NMR; inhibition; phosphine; Concanavalin A; beta-galactosidase; dynamic drug discovery.; Chemistry; Kemi; Organic chemistry; Organisk kemi; Bioorganic chemistry; Bioorganisk kemi;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with the design, formation and evaluation of dynamic systems constructed by means of sulfur-containing reversible reactions, in organic and aqueous media and under mild conditions. In a first part, the synthesis of thioglycoside derivatives, constituting the biologically relevant starting components of the dynamic systems, is described. READ MORE

    Abstract : In this thesis the synthesis of several hydrolytically stable carbohydrate mimics with the potential to function as glycosidase or lectin inhibitors are described. This work is presented in Chapters 2-5. READ MORE

  5. 3. Carbohydrate-Functionalized Nanomaterials : Synthesis, Characterization and Biorecognition Studies

    Author : Na Kong; Mingdi Yan; Joseph J. Barchi Jr; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; carbohydrate; glyconanomaterials; perfluorophenyl azide PFPA ; CuAAC; AAAC; coupling chemistry; 19 F q NMR; lectin; carbon nanomaterials; microwave irradiation; Kemi; Chemistry; Bioteknologi; Biotechnology;

    Abstract : This thesis focuses on the development of carbohydrate coupling chemistry on nanomaterials and their biological activity studies. It is divided into two parts:In part one, two carbohydrate immobilization approaches, based on perfluorophenyl azide (PFPA)-functionalized silica nanoparticles (SNPs), are presented, where the binding affinity of the glyconanoparticles was evaluated through carbohydrate-lectin interaction.

  6. 4. Efficient carbohydrate synthesis by controlled inversion strategies

    Author : Hai Dong; Olof Ramström; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Carbohydrate Chemistry; Carbohydrate Protection; Epimerization; Inversion; Dynamic; Regioselective Control; Neighboring Group Participation; Organic chemistry; Organisk kemi;

    Abstract : The Lattrell-Dax method of nitrite-mediated substitution of carbohydrate triflates is an efficient method to generate structures of inverse configuration. In this study it has been demonstrated that a neighboring equatorial ester group plays a highly important role in this carbohydrate epimerization reaction, inducing the formation of inversion compounds in good yields.

    Abstract : To study the functions of glycoconjugates in biological systems reliable and efficient protocols for glycoconjugate synthesis are needed. To reach this goal we have developed methods for solid-phase synthesis of glycoconjugates that can be monitored with gel-phase 19F spectroscopy using fluorinated linkers, building blocks, and protecting groups.
