The successful syntheses of 5-azido-2,3,4,6-tetra-O-benzyl-5-deoxy-D-glucononitrile and 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-benzyl-5-deoxy-5-trifluoroacetamido-D-glucononitrile starting from D-glucose are described. Unsuccessful attempts were made to convert these two compounds into a protected 5-amino-5-deoxy-D-glucononitrile and to subsequently cyclize them to an amidine analogue of glucose as a possible glycosidase inhibitor. Keywords: synthesis, amino-sugars, glycosidase inhibitors.

We present a new type of glycosidase inhibitor including a unique hydrazide imide moiety, which displays inhibition in the low micromolar range.

The synthetic amino sugar 1,4-dideoxy-1,4-imino-L-allitol (DIA) is a moderately good inhibitor of human liver alpha-D-mannosidases and a weak inhibitor of alpha-L-fucosidase, N-acetyl-beta-D-hexosaminidase and beta-D-mannosidase. Methylation of the ring nitrogen of DIA markedly decreases the inhibition of all the glycosidases except N-acetyl-beta-D-hexosaminidase. N-Benzylation of DIA essentially abolishes all inhibitory activity, except towards alpha-L-fucosidase, which is more strongly inhibited than by either DIA or N-methyl-DIA. This is the first report of a change of specificity of inhibition of a glycosidase inhibitor by substitution of the ring nitrogen.

Four chain-extended analogues of the naturally occurring glycosidase inhibitor salacinol were synthesized for structure–activity studies with different glycosidase enzymes. The syntheses involved the reaction of isopropylidene-protected 1,4-thio- and 1,4-seleno-D-talitols and 1,5-thio- and 1,5-seleno-L-gulitols, derived from D-mannose, with a benzylidene- and isopropylidene-protected 1,3-cyclic sulfate, also derived from D-mannose. Deprotection of the products afforded the novel selenonium and sulfonium sulfates composed of heterocyclic five- and six-membered ring core structures with pendant polyhydroxylated, acyclic chains of six carbon atoms.Key words: glycosidase inhibitors, zwitterionic selenonium and sulfonium sulfates, cyclic sulfate

The British moth Eana incanana (Tortricidae) has been found to selectively metabolize the glycosidase inhibitor 2 R, 3 R, 4 R, 5 R-2,5-dihydroxymethyl-3,4-dihydroxypyrrolidine (DMDP), whereas it excretes related alkaloids from Hyacinthoides non-scripta (Hyacinthaceae). Very few native animals feed on H. non-scripta, but the larvae of E. incanana are specialized herbivores feeding just on the buds and flowers destroying the ovary. DMDP is the major glucosidase inhibitor of H. non-scripta and the moth may overcome inhibition of digestive glucosidases by metabolizing the DMDP. The glucosidase enzymes of the caterpillar are inhibited by DMDP. The caterpillar excretes the other glycosidase inhibitors produced by this plant and the frass has increased concentrations of these alkaloids.

The syntheses of two 1,4-anhydro-D-xylitol heteroanalogues (8 and 9) of the naturally occurring sulfonium ion, salacinol (3), containing a sulfur or nitrogen atom in the ring are described. Salacinol (3) is one of the active principles in the aqueous extracts of Salacia reticulata that are traditionally used in Sri Lanka and India for the treatment of Type 2 diabetes. The synthetic strategy relies on the nucleophilic attack of sulfur or nitrogen analogues of 1,4-anhydro-D-xylitol at the least-hindered carbon of 2,4-O-benzylidene-L-erythritol-1,3-cyclic sulfate. The sulfonium ion 8 inhibited barley-α-amylase (AMY1) and porcine pancreatic-α-amylase (PPA), with Ki values of 109 ± 11 and 55 ± 5 µM, respectively. In contrast, the ammonium ion 9 showed no significant inhibition of either AMY1 or PPA. Compounds 8 and 9 also showed no significant inhibition of glucoamylase.Key Words: glycosidase inhibitors, salacinol analogues, anhydro-D-xylitol heteroanalogues, enzyme inhibition.

An epimer of the known glycosidase inhibitor noeurostegine, galacto-noeurostegine, was synthesised in 21 steps from levoglucosan and found to be a potent, competitive and highly selective galactosidase inhibitor of Aspergillus oryzae β-galactosidase.
