    Abstract

    This chapter provides an overview of recent research on the use of highly chemoselective reactions of carbohydrates to expedite construction of glyconanoparticles. These methodologies provide tools for chemical biology and biopolymer medicinal chemistry. The text is divided into two main sections: one describing methods based on thiol-terminated glycoconjugates, and the other describing reactions on nanoparticle surfaces. The topics covered in this focused minireview are also of importance for chemoselectivity in construction of glycoconjugates, glyco-functionalized surfaces, and functionalized nanoparticles in general.
