Polysaccharide Aldehydes and Ketones: Synthesis and Reactivity.
Biomacromolecules 2024 March 16
Polysaccharides are biodegradable, abundant, sustainable, and often benign natural polymers. The achievement of selective modification of polysaccharides is important for targeting specific properties and structures and will benefit future development of highly functional, sustainable materials. The synthesis of polysaccharides containing aldehyde or ketone moieties is a promising tool for achieving this goal because of the rich chemistry of aldehyde or ketone groups, including Schiff base formation, nucleophilic addition, and reductive amination. The obtained polysaccharide aldehydes or ketones themselves have rich potential for making useful materials, such as self-healing hydrogels, polysaccharide-protein therapeutic conjugates, or drug delivery vehicles. Herein, we review recent advances in synthesizing polysaccharides containing aldehyde or ketone moieties and briefly introduce their reactivity and corresponding applications.
