Synthesis of the enantiomers of 6-epicastanospermine and 1,6-diepicastanospermine from d- and l-gulonolactone

The synthesis of the enantiomers of 6-epicastanospermine and of 1,6-diepicastanospermine from the enantiomeric gulonolactones is reported and the structure of the former is established as (1 S,6 R,7 R,8 R,8a R)-1,6,7,8-tetrahydroxyoctahydroindolizine. The inhibitory activities of the diastereomers a...

Description
Summary:The synthesis of the enantiomers of 6-epicastanospermine and of 1,6-diepicastanospermine from the enantiomeric gulonolactones is reported and the structure of the former is established as (1 S,6 R,7 R,8 R,8a R)-1,6,7,8-tetrahydroxyoctahydroindolizine. The inhibitory activities of the diastereomers against the amyloglucosidase-catalysed hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl α- d-glucopyranoside were investigated, and the effects of 6-epicastanospermine and of 1,6-diepicastanospermine on 14 human liver glycosidases are reported.
