Trehalose-based octopus glycosides for the synthesis of carbohydrate-centered PAMAM dedrimers and thiourea-bridged glycoclusters

[GRAPHICS] The nonreducing disaccharide trehalose was modified into an octa-amino-functionalized core molecule to serve in the synthesis of carbohydrate-centered PAMAM glycodendrimers and thiourea-bridged glycoclusters.
