New methods for C-C glycosylation

The book explores the ongoing global crisis of tuberculosis (TB), a disease that remains a significant threat, particularly in impoverished regions. It highlights the challenges posed by TB's resilience against the immune system and treatment due to its complex cell structure. A key focus is the development of a general method for stereoselective C-C glycosylation, which can be utilized to synthesize antigens for tuberculosis, potentially advancing research and treatment strategies against this persistent health emergency.
