New Strategy for the Synthesis of Iminoglycitols from Amino Acids
摘要:
A novel strategy for the enantioselective synthesis of polyhydroxypiperidines, which can be considered as iminoglycitols or 2,6-dideoxyazasugars, was developed, alpha-Benzolsulfonylamino esters served as a C2N building block while 2-bromo-3-(bromomethyl)oxazoles and -thiazoles contributed a C3-unit to the final piperidine ring. At first a dihydropyridine ring was established via alkylation and bromine-lithium exchange. The keto group of the resulting 5,6-dihydro[1,3]oxazolo- and 5,6-dihydro[1,3]thiazolo[4,5-c]pyridin-7(4H)-ones was reduced and, after alkylation reactions, the azole ring was cleaved, thus providing heteroatom substituents for the target piperdines. Protected 5-amino-3,4-dihydroxy and 5-amino-3-hydroxy-4-thiohydroxypiperdines were obtained in the talose series while Mitsunobu reaction of the intermiediates provided access to the altrose series.
Compounds having the structure of Formula (I), including pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds, are CETP inhibitors and are useful for raising HDL-cholesterol, reducing LDL-cholesterol, and for treating or preventing atherosclerosis. In the compounds of Formula (I), B is a cyclic group other than phenyl, and B has a cyclic substituent at a position that is ortho to the position at which B is connected to the remainder of the structure of Formula (I). The 5-membered ring of Formula (I) has a second cyclic substituent in addition to B.
