The lithium enolate of (±)-6-endo-chloro-5-exo-(phenylseleno)-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-one (16) added to furan-2-carboxaldehyde giving a single aldol 19 (Schemes 1 and 2) that was converted with high stereoselectivity into (±)-(1RS,3SR,4SR,5RS,6SR)-5-exo-{(RS)-[(tert-butyl)dimethylsilyloxy](furan-2-yl)methyl}-6-endo-(methoxymethoxy)-2-oxo-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-3-exo-yl 4-bromobenzenesulfonate (46). Highly regioselective Baeyer-Villiger oxidation of 46 provided the corresponding β-DL-altrofuranurono-6,1-lactone 49, the methanolysis of which gave (±)-methyl 1,5-anhydro-3-{(SR)-[(tert-butyl)dimethylsiloxy](furan-2-yl)methyl}-3-deoxy-2-O-(methoxymethyl)-α-DL-galactofuranuronate (51). Reduction of 51 followed by protection furnished (±)-1,4-anhydro-3-{(SR)-[(tert-butyl)dimethylsilyoxy](furan-2-yl)methyl}-3-deoxy-2,6-bis-O-(methoxymethyl)-α-DL-galactopyranose (54). Clean oxidation of the furan unit in (54). Clean oxidation of the furan unit in 54 was possible with dimethyldioxirane, giving the corresponding (Z)-4-oxoenal 59 that was converted into pyrroles such as (±)-1,4-anhydro-3-{(SR)-[(tert-butyl)dimethylsilyloxy](1-benzyl-1 H-pyrrol-2-yl)methyl}-3-deoxy-2,6-bis-O-(methoxymethyl)-α-DL-galactopyranose (58; Scheme 5), or into pyrrolidin-3,4-diols by dihydroxylation of (±)-1,4-anhydro-3-{(1′RS,2′RS,Z)-1′-[(tert-butyl)-dimethylsilyloxy]-2′,5′-bis[(methylsulfonyl)oxy]pent-3′-enyl}-3-deoxy-2,6-bis-O-(methoxymethyl)-α-DL-galactopyranose (70; Schemes 6 and 7). After adequate protection (→ 70), selective displacement of one of the mesylate moieties with LiN3, followed by hydrogenation of the corresponding primary azide and intramolecular substitution, led to four protected, stereoisomeric C-linked imino disaccharides (Scheme 7); the latter were deprotected under acidic conditions to give (±)-3-deoxy-3-[(1′SR)-2′,5′-dideoxy-2′,5′-imino-α-LD-ribitol-1′-C-yl]-DL-galactose (3), (±)-3-deoxy-3-[(1′SR)-2′,5′-dideoxy-2′,5′-imino-α-DL-arabinitol-1′-C-yl]-DL-galactose (4), (±)-3-deoxy-3-[(1′SR)-2′,5′-dideoxy-2′,5′-imino-β-DL-ribitol-1′-C-yl]-DL-galactose (5), and (±)-3-deoxy-3-[(1′SR)-2′,5′-dideoxy-2′,5′-imino-β-DL-arabinitol-1′-C-yl]-DL-galactose (6). These unprotected C-linked imino disaccharides were more stable as ammonium chlorides in H2O. Neutralization of 4 · HCl, followed by NaBH4 reduction, gave (±)-(1RS,2SR,6SR,7RS,8RS,8aSR)-1,2,3,5,6,7,8,8a-octahydro-7-[(1SR,2SR)-1,2,3-trihydroxypropyl]indolizine-1,2,6,8-tetrol (14), a new octahydroindolizinepolyol (Scheme 8). Methyl glycosides of C-linked imino disaccharides 3-6 were also obtained, such as (±)-methyl 3-deoxy-3-[(1′SR)-2′,5′-dideoxy-2′,5′-imino-α-LD-ribitol-1′-C-yl]-β-DL-galactofuranoside (7), (±)-methyl 3-deoxy-3-[(1′SR)-2′,5′-dideoxy-2′,5′-imino-β-LD-arabinitol-1′-C-yl]-β-DL-galactofuranoside (8) and -α-DL-galactofuranoside (9), (±)-methyl 3-deoxy-3-[(1′SR)-2′,5′-dideoxy-2′,5′-imino-α-DL-arabinitol-1′-C-yl]-β-DL-galactofuranoside (11) and -α-DL-galactopyranoside (10), and (±)-methyl 3-deoxy-3-[(1′SR)-2′,5′-dideoxy-2′,5′-imino-β-DL-ribitol-1′-C-yl]-β-DL-galactofuranoside (13) and -α-DL-galactopyranoside (12). All these new C-linked imino disaccharides can be obtained in their enantiomerically pure form either starting with enantiomerically pure 7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptain-2-one derivatives (‘naked sugars of the first generation’) or using the method of Johnson and Zeller applied to the racemic protected aldol 3-exo-{[(tert-butyl)dimethylsiloxy](furan-2-yl)methyl}-6-endo-chloro-5-exo-(phenylseleno)-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-one (22; see Scheme 2). The unprotected C-linked imino disaccharides 3-13 and octahydroindolzinetetrol 14 were tested for their inhibitory activity toward 25 commercially available glycohydrolases. Only compound 3 which mimics the mannopyranosyl-cation intermediate during the hydrolysis of an α-mannopyranosyl-(1 → 3)-galactose has a weak, but specific α-mannosidase inhibitory activity.
