A short route for the synthesis of "sweet" macrocycles via a click-dimerization-ring-closing metathesis approach.
A facile and flexible approach for the preparation of macrocyclic molecules containing different carbohydrate moieties is presented, employing the reaction cascade: click-dimerization and ring-closing metathesis.
