Abstract
Chemical reactions using isomaltulose as the starting material leading to advanced functional carbohydrate derivatives are reviewed. A focus is made notably on the synthesis and application of different kinds of carboxylic acids and lactones obtained by oxidation of isomaltulose and the strategies using its triply dehydrated derivative, glycosyloxymethylfurfural.
Keywords: Baylis-Hillman, biobased chemistry, dehydration, glucosyloxymethylfurfural, isomaltitol (palatinit), isomaltulose (Palatinose®), oxidation.

Catalytic C-H bond activation as a tool for functionalization of heterocycles
The major topic is the functionalization of heterocycles through catalyzed C-H bond activation. The strategies based on C-H activation not only provide straightforward formation of C-C or C-X bonds but, more importantly, allow for the avoidance of pre-functionalization of one or two of the cross-coupling partners. The beneficial impact of ...read more
Chemistry and Biology of Carbohydrates
Carbohydrates are one of the most abundant natural products and are considered to be extremely important biomolecules for their ever-increasing impact on chemistry and biology. Their role in several important biological processes, notably energy storage, transport, modulation of protein function, intercellular adhesion, malignant transformation, signal transduction, viral, and bacterial cell ...read more
