Abstract
Due to tautomeric equilibria, NMR spectra of reducing sugars can be complex with many overlapping resonances. This hampers coupling constant determination, which is required for conformational analysis and configurational assignment of substituents. Given that mixtures of interconverting species are physically inseparable, easy-to-use techniques that enable facile full 1H NMR characterization of sugars are of interest. Here, we show that individual spectra of both pyranoside and furanoside forms of reducing fluorosugars can be obtained using 1D FESTA. We discuss the unique opportunities offered by FESTA over standard sel-TOCSY and show how it allows a more complete characterization. We illustrate the power of FESTA by presenting the first full NMR characterization of many fluorosugars, including of the important fluorosugar 2-deoxy-2-fluoroglucose. We discuss in detail all practical considerations for setting up FESTA experiments for fluorosugars, which can be extended to any mixture of fluorine-containing species interconverting slowly on the NMR frequency-time scale.

Abstract
Glycomimetics, which are synthetic molecules designed to mimic the structures and functions of natural carbohydrates, have been developed to overcome the limitations associated with natural carbohydrates. The fluorination of carbohydrates has emerged as a promising solution to dramatically enhance the metabolic stability, bioavailability, and protein-binding affinity of natural carbohydrates. In this review, the fluorination methods used to prepare the fluorinated carbohydrates, the effects of fluorination on the physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of natural sugars, and the biological activities of fluorinated sugars are presented.

Abstract
Organic molecules with fluoroalkylene scaffolds, especially a tetrafluoroethylene (CF2 CF2 ) moiety, in their molecular structures exhibit unique biological activities, or can be applied to functional materials such as liquid crystals and light-emitting materials. Although several methods for the syntheses of CF2 CF2 -containing organic molecules have been reported to date, they have been limited to methods using explosives and fluorinating agents. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop simple and efficient approaches to synthesize CF2 CF2 -containing organic molecules from readily available fluorinated substrates using carbon-carbon bond formation reactions. This personal account summarizes the simple and efficient transformation of functional groups at both ends of 4-bromo-3,3,4,4-tetrafluorobut-1-ene and discusses its synthetic applications to biologically active fluorinated sugars and functional materials, such as liquid crystals and light-emitting molecules.

Abstract
Amphiphilic glycoconjugates offer an important prospect for development as chemical biology tools and biosurfactants. The chemical synthesis of such materials is required to expedite such prospect, compounded by the example of oleyl glycosides. Herein, we report a mild and reliable glycosylation method to access oleyl glucosides, glycosidating oleyl alcohol with α-trichloroacetimidate donors. We demonstrate capability for this methodology, extending it to synthesise the first examples of pyranose-component fluorination and sulfhydryl modifications within glucosides and glucosamines of oleyl alcohol. These compounds provide an exciting series of tools to explore processes and materials that utilise oleyl glycosides, including as probes for glycosphingolipid metabolism.

Abstract
Fluorination of carbohydrates has been one of the strategies to increase their enzymatic and chemical stabilities and reduce their hydrophilicities, making this modification attractive for drug discovery purposes. The synthesis of monofluorinated carbohydrates was achieved under mild conditions by using SO2F2 as the deoxyfluorination reagent in the presence of a base without extra fluoride additives. This method features low toxicity, easy availability, low cost, and high efficiency and can be subjected to diverse sugar units.

Abstract
The development of diversity-oriented synthesis based on fluorine-containing building blocks has been one of the hot research fields in fluorine chemistry. β-CF3-1,3-enynes, as one type of fluorine-containing building blocks, have attracted more attention in the last few years due to their distinct reactivity. Numerous value-added trifluoromethylated or non-fluorinated compounds which have biologically relevant structural motifs, such as O-, N-, and S-heterocycles, carboncycles, fused polycycles, and multifunctionalized allenes were synthesized from these fluorine-containing building blocks. This review summarizes the most significant developments in the area of synthesis of organofluorine compounds based on β-CF3-1,3-enynes, providing a detailed overview of the current state of the art.

Abstract
Analogues of the canonical nucleosides have a longstanding presence and proven capability within medicinal chemistry and drug discovery research. The synthesis reported herein successfully replaces furanose oxygen with CF2 and CHF in pyrimidine nucleosides, granting access to an alternative pharmacophore space. Key diastereoselective conjugate addition and fluorination methodologies are developed from chiral pool materials, establishing a robust gram-scale synthesis of 6'-(R)-monofluoro- and 6'-gem-difluorouridines. Vital intermediate stereochemistries are confirmed using X-ray crystallography and NMR analysis, providing an indicative conformational preference for these fluorinated carbanucleosides. Utilising these 6'-fluorocarbauridine scaffolds enables synthesis of related cytidine, ProTide and 2'-deoxy analogues alongside a preliminary exploration of their biological capabilities in cancer cell viability assays. This synthetic blueprint offers potential to explore fluorocarbanucleoside scaffolds, indicatively towards triphosphate analogues and as building blocks for oligonucleotide synthesis.

Abstract
The intermolecular C-O coupling reaction of 1,4-quinones with exo-glycals under iron hydride hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) conditions is described. This method provides a direct and regioselective access to a wide range of phenolic O-ketosides related to biologically relevant natural products in diastereomeric ratios up to >98:2 in the furanose and pyranose series. No trace of the corresponding C-glycosylated products that might have resulted from the radical alkylation of 1,4-quinones was observed. The results of mechanistic experiments suggest that the key C-O bond-forming event proceeds through an oxidative radical-polar crossover process involving a single-electron transfer between the HAT-generated glycosyl radical and the electron-acceptor quinone.

Abstract
Recently, the strategy of multivalency has been widely employed to design glycosidase inhibitors, as glycomimetic clusters often induce marked enzyme inhibition relative to monovalent analogs. Polyhydroxylated pyrrolidines, one of the most studied classes of iminosugars, are an attractive moiety due to their potent and specific inhibition of glycosidases and glycosyltransferases, which are associated with many crucial biological processes. The development of multivalent pyrrolidine derivatives as glycosidase inhibitors has resulted in several promising compounds that stand out. Herein, we comprehensively summarized the different synthetic approaches to the preparation of multivalent pyrrolidine clusters, from total synthesis of divalent iminosugars to complex architectures bearing twelve pyrrolidine motifs. Enzyme inhibitory properties and multivalent effects of these synthesized iminosugars were further discussed, especially for some less studied therapeutically relevant enzymes. We envision that this comprehensive review will help extend the applications of multivalent pyrrolidine iminosugars in future studies.
