5-Cyclohexylpentyl-4-O-(a-D-glucopyranosyl)-b-D-glucopyranoside

5-Cyclohexylpentyl-b-D-maltoside,

The glycosylation process is a chemical reaction in which an organic molecule is attached to a sugar or other carbohydrate. The product of this process is known as a glycoside. Glycosylations are important in the synthesis of complex carbohydrates and glycoconjugates. The most common glycosidic bond that is formed is between the hydroxyl group of a saccharide (such as glucose) and the amino group of another saccharide (such as N-acetylglucosamine). The most common type of glycosylation reaction is the formation of an O-glycosidic bond between two sugars, such as glucose and N-acetylgalactosamine, to form the disaccharide lactose. There are many different types of glycosylations, including methylation, Click modification, fluorination, saccharide modification, and custom synthesis.
