Starting from an L-serine-derived multifunctional aminobutenolide as a common chiral building block, stereoselective synthetic routes to representative examples of di-, tri-, and tetra-hydroxylated iminosugars have been developed. Key steps in the synthetic routes involved an intramolecular aminolysis protocol to form the azaheterocyclic core, and functionalization of a resident alkene moiety towards installation of the desired substituents at the various positions of the piperidine ring. The strategy and the approach described are expected to provide flexible synthetic routes to various iminosugar scaffolds of structural and medicinal chemical significance.
