Novel glucose-ferrocenyl derivatives: synthesis and properties
Abstract
The synthesis and characterization of 4,6-benzyliden-2,3-(ferrocene-1,1′-dicarbonyl)-O-methyl-α-D-glucopyranoside, 2,3-(ferrocene-1,1′-dicarbonyl)-O-methyl-α-D-glucopyranoside and 4,6 : 2,3-bis(ferrocene-1,1′-dicarbonyl)-O-methyl-α-D-glucopyranoside are reported. In addition the cytostatic activity of 2,3-(ferrocene-1,1′-dicarbonyl)-O-methyl-α-D-glucopyranoside has been assayed.
