Simple syntheses of 4-O-glucosylated 1-deoxynojirimycins from maltose and cellobiose.
Glucosidase inhibitors alpha-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-->4)-1-deoxynojirimycin and beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-->4)-1-deoxynojirimycin were prepared from maltose and cellobiose, respectively, via the corresponding 5,6-eno derivatives, their epoxidation and the subsequent double reductive amination of the resulting 5-uloses. In both cases, the reported route is the first chemical synthesis not based on enzymatic glucosyl transfer.
