RESUMO
The C8'-epimeric pyranosyl amino acid core 2 of amipurimycin was synthesized from D-glucose derived alcohol 3 in 13 steps and 14% overall yield. Thus, the Sharpless asymmetric epoxidation of allyl alcohol 7 followed by trimethyl borate mediated regio-selective oxirane ring opening with azide, afforded azido diol 10. The acid-catalyzed 1,2-acetonide ring opening in 10 concomitantly led to the formation of the pyranose ring skeleton to give 2,7-dioxabicyclo[3.2.1]octane 12. Functional group manipulation in 12 gave 21 that on stereoselective ß-glycosylation afforded the pyranosyl thymine nucleoside 2 - a core of amipurimycin.
RESUMO
We report herein a newly developed domino reaction that facilitates the synthesis of new 1,5-dideoxy-1,5-iminoribitol iminosugar C-glycosides 7a-e and 8. The key intermediate in this approach is a six-membered cyclic sugar nitrone that is generated in situ and trapped by an alkene dipolarophile via a [2 + 3] cycloaddition reaction to give the corresponding isooxazolidines 10a-e in a "one-pot" protocol. The iminoribitol C-glycosides 7a-e and 8 were found to be modest ß-galactosidase (bGal) inhibitors. However, compounds 7c and 7e showed "pharmacological chaperone" activity for mutant lysosomal bGal activity and facilitated its recovery in GM1 gangliosidosis patient fibroblasts by 2-6-fold.

An efficient and practical strategy for the synthesis of (3R,4s,5S)-4-(2-hydroxyethyl) piperidine-3,4,5-triol and its N-alkyl derivatives 8a-f, starting from the D-glucose, is reported. The chiral pool methodology involves preparation of the C-3-allyl-α-D-ribofuranodialdose 10, which was converted to the C-5-amino derivative 11 by reductive amination. The presence of C-3-allyl group gives an easy access to the requisite hydroxyethyl substituted compound 13. Intramolecular reductive aminocyclization of C-5 amino group with C-1 aldehyde provided the γ-hydroxyethyl substituted piperidine iminosugar 8a that was N-alkylated to get N-alkyl derivatives 8b-f. Iminosugars 8a-f were screened against glycosidase enzymes. Amongst synthetic N-alkylated iminosugars, 8b and 8c were found to be α-galactosidase inhibitors while 8d and 8e were selective and moderate α-mannosidase inhibitors. In addition, immunomodulatory activity of compounds 8a-f was examined. These results were substantiated by molecular docking studies using AUTODOCK 4.2 programme.
