When the series of 2-, 3-, and 4-(benzylamino)-2-, 3-, and 4-deoxy derivatives of 1,6-anhydro-beta-D-hexopyranoses in the D-gluco, D-lyxo, and D-arabino configurations were reacted with diisopropyl azodicarboxylate, N-benzyl groups were selectively cleaved in the presence of O-benzyl groups. The yields ranged from 51 to 97%. The debenzylation of some aliphatic benzylamines is also discussed.

A series of various N-substituted 3-(3-fluoropropyl)-3H-spiro[[2]benzofuran-1,4'-piperidines] (7) has been synthesized. In receptor binding studies, the N-benzyl derivative 7a (WMS-1813) revealed extraordinarily high sigma(1) receptor affinity (K(i) = 1.4 nM) and excellent sigma(1)/sigma(2) selectivity (>600 fold).

Background: Spiroketals and the corresponding aza-spiroketals are the structural features found in a number of bioactive natural products, and in compounds possessing photochromic properties for use in the area of photochemical erasable memory, self-development photography, actinometry, displays, filters, lenses of variable optical density, and photomechanical biomaterials etc. And (1R,8aS)-1-hydroxyindolizidine (3) has been postulated to be a biosynthetic precursor of hydroxylated indolizidines such as (+)-lentiginosine 1, (-)-2-epilentiginosine 2 and (-)-swainsonine, which are potentially useful antimetastasis drugs for the treatment of cancer. In continuation of a project aimed at the development of enantiomeric malimide-based synthetic methodology, we now report a divergent, concise and highly diastereoselective approach for the asymmetric syntheses of an aza-spiropyran derivative 7 and (1S,8aR)-1-hydroxyindolizidine (ent-3).

A procedure for the preparation of optically pure alpha-methyltryptamines (AMTs) from substituted indoles was developed. The key step in the sequence was the reductive amination of substituted indole-2-propanones with the commercially available pure enantiomers of alpha-methylbenzylamine, followed by the chromatographic separation of the resulting pair of diastereomeric amines by preparative centrifugal (Chromatotron) chromatography. Catalytic N-debenzylation then afforded the pure AMT enantiomers.
