C-glycosides, and illustrates the interesting
breadth of connections between carbohydrate chemistry and modern
general synthetic organic chemistry by including topics such as
transition-metal catalysis, radical chemistry, cycloaddition and
rearrangement processes. In addition, in the final chapter of the
book, the syntheses of C-di and trisaccharides reported through
1994 are reviewed. This well organised account of the synthetic
chemistry in this field will prove to be very valuable to a wide
range of researchers and advanced students, both as an introduction
to the topic and for reference.
