Structural studies on C-2 substitution in a new set of synthetic aminodideoxy sugars: the steric bulk at C-2 influences the puckering of the pyranose ring.
Synthesis and single-crystal X-ray structural analyses of selected aminodideoxy sugars with different group substitutions at the C-2 position were carried out. Product formation and X-ray crystallographic determination of the products from C-2 substitution in both alpha and beta anomers were studied. The observed variation in pyranose ring conformations in product compounds is explained in terms of C-2 substitution.
