Abstract
Cyclodextrins are widely used as carriers of small molecules for drug delivery owing to their remarkable host properties and excellent biocompatibility. However, cyclic oligosaccharides with different sizes and shapes are limited. Cycloglycosylation of ultra-large bifunctional saccharide precursors is challenging due to the constrained conformational spaces. Herein we report a promoter-controlled cycloglycosylation approach for the synthesis of cyclic α-(1→6)-linked mannosides up to a 32-mer. Cycloglycosylation of the bifunctional thioglycosides and (Z)-ynenoates was found to be highly dependent on the promoters. In particular, a sufficient amount of a gold(I) complex played a key role in the proper preorganization of the ultra-large cyclic transition state, providing a cyclic 32-mer polymannoside, which represents the largest synthetic cyclic polysaccharide to date. NMR experiments and a computational study revealed that the cyclic 2-mer, 4-mer, 8-mer, 16-mer, and 32-mer mannosides adopted different conformational states and shapes.

Abstract
The synthesis of a disaccharide macrocycle through 2,3-dideoxy glucopyranosyl monosaccharide is reported. 2,3-Dideoxy-erythro-hexopyranosyl thioglycoside possessing a free hydroxy functionality at the C-4 carbon is prepared, and cycloglycosylation is conducted. In the event, the cycloglycosylation occurs with a ring contraction of the monosaccharide moiety and affords the cyclic furanoside disaccharide. Solution-phase and single-crystal X-ray diffraction structural characterizations permit the features of the macrocycle to be uncovered. The solubilization and encapsulation properties of the macrocycle are studied in aqueous solutions with 1-aminoadamantane.

Abstract
Unsaturated monosaccharides expand the scope of reactivities in a sugar, directly leading to the development of newer methodologies, molecular structures and functional entities. The unsaturation as a reactive moiety can either be within the molecule, namely, endocyclic, or as a pendant moiety around the molecule, namely, exocyclic. One carbon homologations aided by reactions at the unsaturated moiety expand the molecular structures in both endo- and exocyclic sugars and lead to structures that are largely hitherto unknown. Molecular shifts and rearrangements permit interchanging the reactivities from one carbon to the other in unsaturated sugars. Activations of exocyclic unsaturated sugars also find newer possibilities to reactions central to the sugar chemistry, namely, the glycosylations. The personal reflections result from a couple of decades of explorations that traverse through the unsaturated sugars from different vantage points.

Abstract
Cyclodextrins (CDs) are commercially produced via enzymatic breakdown of starch or amylose. In contrast, we show that cyclodextrins can be synthesised directly from the disaccharide maltose in good yields by exploiting the use of templates to favour the enzymatic build-up of cyclodextrins. Using cyclodextrin glucanotransferase to catalyse reversible transglycosylation, and 1-adamantane carboxylic acid as the template, we can synthesise β-CD from maltose in approximately 70% yield. This work represents a step towards supramolecular control over enzymatic production of complex oligosaccharides from simple building blocks.
