electrochemical polyglycosylation is also discussed, based on the oxidation potential of the monomer and oligosaccharides.
Keywords: electrochemical glycosylation; glucosamine; oligosaccharide; oxidation potential; polyglycosylation; Introduction
Chitin oligosaccharides are partial structures of chitin, which
polyglycosylation via the electrochemical activation of thioglycosides is a practical approach for the preparation of chitin oligosaccharides. Hashimoto and co-workers have already reported the synthesis of protected precursors of chitin oligosaccharides by polyglycosylation of thioglycosides [5]. However, this is
