Synthesis of new sugar derivatives and evaluation of their antibacterial activities against Mycobacterium tuberculosis
摘要:
A series of sugar derivatives (1-13) were synthesized and evaluated for antibacterial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB), especially multi-drug resistant (MDR) MTB, and the structure-activity relationships of these compounds were studied. The results showed that the compound OCT313 (2-acetamido-2deoxy-beta-D-glucopyranosyl N,N-dimethyldithiocarbamate) (4) exhibited significant in vitro bactericidal activity, and that the dithiocarbamate group at C-1 position of the glucopyranoside ring was requisite for the antibacterial activity.

Vitamin B12 Catalysis of Zinc-Mediated 6-Deoxy-6-iodopyranoside Fragmentation: A Mild and Convenient Preparation of ω-Unsaturated Hexose Derivatives (5-Hexenoses)
The known zinc-mediated preparation of 5-hexenoses by fragmentation of 6-iodopyranosides can be performed in a simple, fast, and mild way, with less side reactions, when vitamin B12 is employed as a catalyst.
