Abstract

Glycoaminoxy acids, a new class of sugar building blocks bearing both aminoxy and carboxylic acid functional groups on the sugar ring, have been efficiently synthesized from α-C-allyl glycosides. These compounds can be easily used for the synthesis of an N-oxy-amide-linked disaccharide and glycosyl amino acid mimetics.
