Synthesis of L‐Hexoses: An Update

Over the years, carbohydrates have increasingly become an important class of compounds contributing significantly to the target specific drug discovery and vaccine development. Several oligosaccharides contain L‐hexoses that are biologically relevant as therapeutic and diagnostic tools. Since, L‐hexoses and deoxy L‐hexoses are not readily available in large amount and pure form, attention is drawn towards development of cost effective and high yielding synthetic routes for their procurement. In this review we give an update on the recent developments in strategies for synthesis of L‐hexoses and deoxy L‐hexoses.
