	abstract = {<p>A concise synthesis of 12-C-glycosylated dodecanoic acids employing an olefin cross-metathesis reaction is developed. Examination of these acids as capping agents for the synthesis of metal nanoparticles reveals that they do not cap the Co-metal nanoparticles synthesized in aqueous phase, but that two of them can reduce and cap the Ag nanoparticles in water without any aggregation.
