Recent progress of C-glycosylation methods in the total synthesis of natural products and pharmaceuticals

Abstract

Chemical C-glycosylation has been well developed to improve stereoselectivity in recent years. Due to its high efficiency to build C-glycosides or O-cyclic compounds, C-glycosylation has found widespread use in the synthesis of biologically active molecules. This review highlights the C-glycosylation methods that have been practised in the total synthesis of natural products and pharmaceuticals in the past decade.
