Abstract

The first synthesis of 1,2-trans-homoiminosugars devised as mimics of β-D-GlcNAc and α-D-ManNAc is described. Key steps include a regioselective azidolysis of a cyclic sulfite and a β-amino alcohol skeletal rearrangement applied to a polyhydroxylated azepane. The β-D-GlcNAc derivative has been coupled to serine to deliver an iminosugar C-amino acid. The two homoiminosugars demonstrate moderate glycosidase inhibition.
