Methyl 3,4-O-isopropylidene-L-threonate is a chromatographic chiral compound that is synthesized by the reaction of malonate and aspartyl amide. This product can be used to determine the stereochemistry of other chiral compounds. It is an endocannabinoid that has been found to have anti-inflammatory activities in animals. Methyl 3,4-O-isopropylidene-L-threonate has also been shown to have antiobesity effects in mice fed a high fat diet and may be used as a synthetic carbohydrate replacement for diabetics.

1,3-O-Benzylidene-L-erythritol is a potent inhibitor of the intestinal maltase. It has two diastereomers, one of which is more potent than the other. The more potent diastereomer inhibits both the maltase and L-arabinose isomerase enzymes in the intestine. This inhibition prevents digestion of complex carbohydrates such as starch and sucrose into simple sugars that can be absorbed by the body. 1,3-O-Benzylidene-L-erythritol also inhibits salacinol synthase and thiosugar synthetases from bacteria and plants, preventing synthesis of these important compounds.

2,3,5-Tri-O-benzyl-1,4-dideoxy-1,4-epithio-D-arabinitol is a compound that belongs to the family of thiosugars. It has been isolated from a variety of plant sources and has been shown to have inhibitory activity against the growth of bacteria. 2,3,5-Tri-O-benzyl-1,4-dideoxy-1,4 epithio D arabinitol inhibits bacterial growth by binding to the enzyme formate dehydrogenase and thereby prevents the formation of formate. This compound also inhibits salacinol and thiosugar synthesis in extracts of plants such as Salacia reticulata. 2,3,5 Tri O Benzyl 1,4 dideoxy 1 4 epithio D arabinitol is also found in the Ayurvedic medicine water extract known as voglibose.

2,3,4,6-Tetra-O-acetyl-b-D-mannopyranose (2,3,4,6TOA) is a methylated form of b-D-mannopyranose. This compound can be synthesized by the click reaction between an aldehyde group and an amine group. The modification of 2,3,4,6TOA with acetyl groups at the 2-, 3-, 4-, and 6-positions provides a novel carbohydrate that has not been previously reported in the literature. 2,3,4,6TOA is one of many oligosaccharides that are used as building blocks for complex carbohydrate synthesis.
2,3,4,6TOA has high purity and is available for custom synthesis. It's potential application includes glycosylation reactions or as a substrate for fluorination reactions.

Ethyl 2-O-benzoyl-4,6-di-O-benzyl-3-Fmoc-b-D-thiogalactopyranoside is a synthetic monosaccharide with a benzoyl protecting group. It belongs to the class of saccharides and is used in the synthesis of oligosaccharides, which are carbohydrates consisting of two or more simple sugars. The chemical name for this compound is 3-(2'-benzoyloxy)-2'-deoxygalactose. This product can be custom ordered in high purity and has been modified with methylation and glycosylation.
