Abstract
A straightforward chiral pool synthesis for a non-natural calystegin, 3-epi-B2, is described. Key steps of this synthesis include an ultrasound-assisted Zn-mediated tandem ring opening reaction followed by a Grubbs’ catalyst-mediated ring closure metathesis reaction. Compared to calystegin B2, the target compound is no longer an inhibitor for a β -glycosidase hence proving that an equatorial hydroxyl group at position C-3 is necessary for a tight binding of calystegins into the active site of β -glycosidases.
