Abstract

An efficient and practical strategy for the synthesis of unknown azetidine iminosugars (2S,3R,4S)-2-((R)-1,2-dihydroxyethyl)-3-hydroxy-4-(hydroxymethyl)azetidine 2, (2S,3r,4R)-3-hydroxy-2,4-bis(hydroxymethyl)azetidine 3 and (2S,3R,4S)-3-hydroxy-4-(hydroxymethyl)-N-methylazetidine-2-carboxylic acid 4, starting from the d-glucose has been reported. The methodology involves preparation of the 3-amino-N-benzyloxycarbonyl-3-deoxy-6-O-tert-butyldimethylsillyl-1,2-O-isopropylidene-α-d-glucofuranose 9, which was converted to the C-5-OMs derivative 11. Intramolecular nucleophilic displacement of the C-5-OMs group with in situ generated 3-amino functionality provided the required key azetidine ring skeletons 10 with additional hydroxymethyl group. Removal of 1,2-acetonide protection, followed by reduction and hydrogenolysis afforded azetidine iminosugar 2. Alternatively, removal of 1,2-acetonide group and chopping of C1-anomeric carbon gave C2-aldehyde that on reduction or oxidation followed by hydrogenolysis gave 2,4-bis(hydroxymethyl) azetidine iminosugars 3 and N-methylazetidine-2-carboxylic acid 4 respectively. The glycosidase inhibitory activity of 2-4 iminosugars was screened against various glycosidase enzymes and compared with a standard miglitol. Amongst synthesized targets, the compound 2 was found to be more potent amyloglucosidase inhibitor than miglitol. These results were supported by molecular docking studies.
