title: Synthesis of Pro-Xylane: a new biologically active C-glycoside in aqueous media.
abstract: The scope and limitation of Lubineau's reaction were evaluated for the synthesis of C-glycosides (compounds 1-13). Further transformation of side chain carbonyl was also achieved (compounds 16-23). Optimization of these two steps was investigated in xylose case. Some of the compounds were shown to stimulate sulfated glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) synthesis. Compound 20 (called Pro-Xylane) was identified as the best activator of GAGs biosynthesis. Pro-Xylane was developed using environmentally friendly conditions relevant to 'Green-Chemistry' principles and launched on the market in September 2006. This compound is the first example of 'Green' chemical used in cosmetic.
