Synthesis of “α-Homogalactostatin” and of its 1,N-anhydro derivative
摘要:
alpha-Homogalactostatin 2 was prepared in 10 steps from 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-benzyl-D-galactose by way of a Wittig chain extension and a mercuricyclization. The synthesis of 2 was assisted by the unexpected participation of the nitrogen protecting group (benzyl carbamate) during iododemercuration. Intermediate 10 was converted in 2 steps into the 1,N-anhydro derivative of 2, compound 3, a potential inactivator of galactosidases.
Synthesis of N-substituted iminosugar derivatives and their immunosuppressive activities
摘要:
Several N-alkyl and hydroxyethyl-substituted iminosugar derivatives, including L-altro and D-galacto epimers, were synthesized and the effects of these synthetic iminosugars on proliferation of mouse splenocytes were evaluated in the MTT assay. The experimental data demonstrated that the N-alkylated D-galacto iminosugars showed better inhibitory activities than L-altro analogues, which might hold potential as immunosuppressive agents.

The homoiminosugars alpha- and beta -homogalactonojirimycins were prepared from a common intermediate, tetra-O-benzyl-D-galacto-heptenitol 6, by way of highly stereoselective reaction sequences involving, as the key steps, an internal amidomercuralion (a-epimer) and a double reductive amination (beta -epimer). alpha -Homogalactonojirimycin retains a large part of the potent activity of the parent galactonojirimycin and 1-deoxygalactonojirimycin as an inhibitor of alpha -galaclosidases. However, by contrast with the parent iminosugars, it does not inhibit beta -galactosidases, with the exception of the Jack beans enzyme. beta -Homogalactonojirimycin is a weak cc-galactosidase inhibitor and is completely devoid of activity towards P-galactosidases. Thus, a marked selectivity toward one family of enzymes has been achieved by the addition of an alpha -CH2OH group in the structure of the parent iminosugars. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd.
