N- and S-galactosylation was carried out via the reaction of 5-((Z)-arylidene)-2-thioxo-4-thiazolidinones with 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-α-d-galactopyranosyl bromide under alkaline conditions or under silylation conditions. Deacetylation of the N-galactosylation products was performed with concentrated hydrochloric acid in methanol (3.5%) or sodium methoxide in methanol

The 1-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-beta-D-galactopyranosyl)-3-aryl-5-benzyl (or substituted benzyl)-1,2,4-triazin-6(1H)-/ones or thiones were prepared via galactosidation of 3-aryl-5-benzyl (or substituted benzyl)-1,2,4-triazin-6(1H)-/ones or thiones with 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-alpha-D-galactopyranosyl bromide. The structure of the new galactosyl derivatives was based on both spectroscopic and chemical evidences.

Resveratrol (Res), a naturally occurring polyphenol, has shown pharmacological activities in treatment of liver diseases. However, the application of Res was limited by its poor bioavailability and liver targeting. Herein, 3-O-β-D-Galactosylated Resveratrol (Gal-Res) was synthesized by structural modification of Res
