%X A series of alkenyl &#946;-D-C-glucopyranosides has been glycosylated with &#945;-D-glucopyranosyl fluoride in a &#8216;Glycosynthase&#8217; reaction to yield a range of alkenyl  &#946;-C-cellobiosides and -triosides and in one case a -C-cellotetraoside. Conversion of some of the alkenyl &#946; -D-C-oligosaccharide products into their corresponding epoxides and subsequent deprotection under standard conditions have afforded a panel of epoxyalkyl &#946; -C-oligosaccharides for evaluation as inhibitors of retaining &#946;-glycan hydrolases.
