title: Glycosidase inhibitors and their chemotherapeutic value, Part 1.
abstract: The various compounds that have been investigated as glycosidase inhibitors are reviewed. The first of three parts of this review article covers the following classes of compounds: sugar, lactones and hydroximolactones, glycosyl halides, oligosaccharides, glycosides and their derivatives, deoxy thiosugar derivatives, thioglycosides, deoxy amino and guanidino sugars, glycosylamines, anhydrosugars and their analogues, deoxysugars, glycals, C-glycosides and C-nucleosides.
