Synthesis of Quinic Acid‐Derived Sialylmimetics and Their Effects on T. cruzi and Trans‐Sialidase

ChemistrySelect, Volume 10, Issue 16, April 25, 2025.
The synthesis of sialylmimetic hybrids using quinic and shikimic acids as precursors was achieved in a single synthetic route to produce two isomers (5S‐ and 5R), incorporating the 4‐(4‐nitrophenyl)‐1H‐1,2,3‐triazole units, as novel leads for Chagas disease treatment.
