Abstract

The stereoselective synthesis of 1- C-alkyl iminosugars in the d- xylo and l- arabino series as potential drugs for the treatment of lysosomal diseases has been achieved. The key step involves nucleophilic addition to pentodialdofuranose-derived imines generated using enantiopure tert-butanesulfinamide. Depending on the pentofuranose configuration and structure, the stereoselectivity of this reaction was found to be controlled either by the sugar moiety or by the stereogenic sulfur center.
