During recent years, a rapid expansion has been witnessed within the field of carbohydrate chemistry research. It is significant that many of the world's most prominent organic chemists are deeply involved in devising elegant solutions to current problems in carbohydrate synthesis. Indeed several new concepts originally discovered and developed in the carbohydrate domain have now been successfully incorporated into the main stream of organic chemistry. Conversely, the understanding of the precise biological role of sugars benefits from these developments in the chemistry of carbohydrates.Carbohydrate Letters provides rapid state of the art communications in the field of carbohydrate chemistry. The journal covers all aspects of research in the organic, structural, physical, biological and analytical chemistry of carbohydrates. Articles published by the journal cover monosaccharides and their derivatives (also cyclitols, model compounds and mimics), oligo-and polysaccharides, nucleosides, nucleotides, and glycoconjugates. Research papers in the overlapping field of the chemistry-biology boundary, e.g. development of new drugs based on carbohydrates or mimics, are also included. This journal is an extremely valuable addition to the collection of anyone working in this exciting field.
