It was the aim of this study to synthesize and characterize a novel hyaluronic acid-cysteine ethyl ester (HA-Cys) conjugate providing improved mucoadhesive properties and a significantly lowered biodegradation rate. Mediated by carbodiimide and N-hydroxysuccinimide, L-cysteine ethyl ester hydrochloride was covalently

The novel aza-analogues of tiazofurin (TZF) with 2-[5,5-bis(hydroxymethyl)pyrrolidin-2-yl] moiety, as sugar mimic, were synthesized from O,O-cyclohexylidene derivative of 4,4-bis(hydroxymethyl)-4-nitrobutanal in multi-gram scale. The synthetic route consisted of three stages: (i) the synthesis of corresponding derivative of 5,5-bis(hydroxymethyl)pyrrolidine-2-carbonitrile, (ii) the construction
