Abstract
A series of naturally occurring pyrrolidine alkaloids and analogues, with the general structure of trideoxy-2,5-iminohexitols (imino- or azasugars), have been enantiosynthesized using triorthogonally protected pyrrolidines, previously prepared from commercial d -fructose, as homochiral starting materials. The inhibitory activity of some of the described compounds against glycosidases and glycosyltransferases makes them potential therapeutic agents.
Key words
natural products - alkaloids - carbohydrates - azasugars - stereoselective synthesis
References 1 Part VI of the series. For Part V, see reference 17.
