The Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation of C-allyl-alpha-D-glucopyranoside with variety of ligands and its application to synthesise C-alpha-D-glucosyl-alpha-amino acids have been described.
the ready availability of C-allyl glycosides, the present methodology could be applied to the synthesis of other C-glycosyl aminooxy acid derivatives. Glycosyl amino acids are constituents of glycopeptides and glycoproteins playing key roles in biological processes. We have synthesized C-glucosyl aminooxy acid derivatives as novel glycosyl amino acid building blocks for the generation of glycopeptide
