1,5-Dideoxy-1,5-iminoalditols of various configurations as well as isofagomine were N-alkylated with non-polar straight chain spacer-arms by a set of simple standard procedures. The spacer-arms' terminal functional groups, primary amines, were employed to introduce fluorescent tags such as dansyl and dapoxyl moieties. Resulting derivatives in the D-xylo, D-gluco, D-galacto as well as GlcNAc series showed distinctly improved glycosidase inhibitory activities compared to parent compounds and are designed to be useful analytical tools.

Herein, we present an alternative and elegant synthetic approach toward powerful β-glucosidase inhibitor isofagomine. Derivatizations of the ring nitrogen provided a selected set of N-modified isofagomine analogues. Biological evaluation of these compounds showed a remarkable change in potency as well as α/β-preference for various glycosidases from different sources when compared to the parent compound isofagomine. Overall, the conducted N-modification improved the potency against α-glucosidase from Saccharomyces cerevisiae (GH13). Coming along, significant diminished activities toward GH1 family β-glucosidases from three different sources have been observed for all tested derivatives. Moreover, and contrary to isofagomine, deactivations of β-galactosidase from Escherichia coli (GH2) as well as α-mannosidase from Canavalia ensiformis (GH38) have not been verified for this series of compounds.
