Synthesis of ether-linked [60]fullerene glycoconjugates by nucleophilic cyclopropanation

Abstract Ethyl acetoacetate-sugar derivatives were prepared by standard alkylation of primary or secondary hydroxyls of diacetonide-protected sugars with ethyl 4-chloroacetoacetate. The obtained d-fructose, d-galactose, d-glucose and d-allose derivatives were conjugated to C
