2,3,4,6-Tetra-O-acetyl-a-D-glucopyranosyl chloride (TAOC) is a nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) probe that has been used to study the structure of nuclei. It is synthesised by reacting acetyl chloride with sucrose in a reaction catalyzed by sodium hydroxide. The compound can be detected in quadrupole and resonance spectroscopy due to its high sensitivity to nuclear magnetic resonance. This NMR probe is typically used to study the structures of nuclei or for the analysis of polysaccharides.

The compound 1,7,7a-Triepialexine is an alkaloid that is found in plants of the genus Trientalis. It has been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties due to its ability to inhibit prostaglandin synthesis. The compound also has a stereoselective synthesis and a stereoselective syntheses.

N-Acetyl-L-talosaminuronic acid is a natural product that has been shown to have anti-inflammatory activity in experimental models of inflammatory bowel disease. N-Acetyl-L-talosaminuronic acid inhibits the production of proinflammatory cytokines, such as tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα), by binding to TNFα receptors on the surface of cells. This can be attributed to its ability to inhibit ATP levels and reduce oxidative stress, which are both factors that contribute to inflammation. N-Acetyl-L-talosaminuronic acid also has been shown to inhibit inflammatory responses in human monocytes and neutrophils. It binds specifically to her2+ breast cancer cells and inhibits their growth in culture. Furthermore, it has been shown to have cytotoxic effects on bladder cancer cells and can be used for the treatment of bladder cancer.

Leucine-​derived gamma-hydroxynitrile glucoside

Glucal is a carbohydrate that is used as a synthon in organic synthesis. It has been shown to be anomeric and can be synthesized by acetylation of the corresponding aldose, or by the glycosidic bond reaction with borohydride reduction. Glucal is not stable at high pH and can undergo ring-opening reactions with nucleophiles such as sodium borohydride. Glucal also reacts with glycoconjugates to form new molecules, which are called glycosidic products.

Intermediate in the synthesis of prostaglandins

2,3,4,6-Tetra-O-benzyl-D-glucopyranose is a selectively protected intermediate, where the anomeric 1-O-hydroxyl group is free. This hemiacetal has been used successfully as an intermediate for glucosylation couplings, where it was converted into 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-benzyl-D-glucopyranose trichloroacetimidate using trichloroacetonitrile in the presence of a base such as potassium carbonate and DBU. Importantly, this imidate donor with no neighbouring participating groups is commonly used for the selective formation of α-glucosides. 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-benzyl-D-glucopyranose can also be oxidized to the lactone, or reduced to give the open chain form. Additionally, 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-benzyl-D-glucopyranose can be used for the preparation of glucono-1,5-lactone hydrazine, which was used, in-turn, to form a glucosylidene-spirocyclopropane.

Isosorbide dinitrate is used to treat chronic bronchitis and congestive heart failure. It dilates blood vessels, allowing more oxygen-rich blood to reach the heart. Isosorbide dinitrate is also used to relieve chest pain (angina) and reduce complications after a heart attack. Isosorbide dinitrate is a prodrug that is converted in vivo to its active form, isosorbide mononitrate, by the enzyme nitric oxide synthase in response to hypoxia. In addition, it has been shown that this drug reduces levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and may be useful for the treatment of high cholesterol.
The mechanism of action for reducing LDL-C levels is not known but may be due to increased clearance of LDL-C from plasma or decreased production of very low density lipoproteins (VLDL). This medication does not affect triglycerides or high density lip

Ethyl 2,3,4-tri-O-benzyl-L-thiofucopyranoside is a glycosylation agent that is used in the synthesis of complex carbohydrates. It can also be used in the methylation and click modification of saccharides. Ethyl 2,3,4-tri-O-benzyl-L-thiofucopyranoside has been shown to have a high purity and can be custom synthesized to fit the needs of the customer. This product has a CAS number of 169532-17-6 and it is available in both monosaccharides and oligosaccharides.

1,2,3,4,6-Penta-O-acetyl-α-D-mannopyranose is an acetylated sugar which is used as an intermediate in the mannosylation of glycoproteins or glycoconjugates. It can be used in the production of mannosylated glycoconjugate vaccines or lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) which have been investigated for improving antigen up-take mediated, via the mannose receptor (MR) of human antigen presenting cells (APCs).  1,2,3,4,6-Penta-O-acetyl-a-D-mannopyranose, also known as α-D-Mannose pentaacetate, has also been used in the study of isolated rat pancreatic islets where it stimulates insulin release.

2-Deoxy-2-fluoro-D-arabinofuranose is a purine nucleoside that is used in the diagnosis and treatment of herpes simplex virus infection. It inhibits viral replication by competitively inhibiting acycloguanosine, an enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of 2’-deoxyguanosine to deoxyadenosine. 2-Deoxy-2-fluoro-D-arabinofuranose has been shown to be active against cancer cells and can be used as chemotherapeutic agent. This drug may also be used for the diagnosis of cancer by detecting the presence of activated T cells in patients with tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα) receptor gene polymorphism.

L-Idonic acid sodium is a plant hormone that regulates carbohydrate metabolism. It has been shown to regulate the synthesis of galacturonic acid and malic acid, which are important for the production of glucose. L-Idonic acid sodium also regulates the synthesis of fatty acids, which are important for cell membrane formation. L-Idonic acid sodium is an intermediate in the biosynthesis of l-tartaric acid, which is an enzyme substrate. The gene product that encodes this molecule has been characterized as a protein with a molecular weight of approximately 9,000 daltons and a hydroxyl group on C-3.
