Natural carbohydrates have complex structures including many kinds of monosaccharide units, which are very difficult and costly to generate by chemical synthetic approaches. Over the years, enzymatic approaches have been gaining popularity for the synthesis of oligosaccharides and glycoconjugates, and it is becoming increasingly feasible to produce complex carbohydrates in large scale, following enzymatic biosynthetic pathways.

More about this publication?
  • Current Organic Synthesis publishes in-depth reviews on all areas of synthetic organic chemistry i.e. asymmetric synthesis, organometallic chemistry, novel synthetic approaches to complex organic molecules, carbohydrates, polymers, protein chemistry, DNA chemistry, supramolecular chemistry, molecular recognition and new synthetic methods in organic chemistry. The frontier reviews provide the current state of knowledge in these fields and are written by experts who are internationally known for their eminent research contributions. The journal is essential reading to all synthetic organic chemists. Current Organic Synthesis should prove to be of great interest to synthetic chemists in academia and industry who wish to keep abreast with recent developments in key fields of organic synthesis.
