Published: April 2014

A novel and concise scheme has been developed successfully for the syntheses of N-substituted fagomine derivatives. The transformation of lactone (2) to 1,5-diol (3) was carried on with high yield (93-95%). The cyclization of 4 to 5 is a high stereoselective reaction (de value > 98%). It is disclosed that bulky substituent at N atom of the piperidine decreases the inhibition activity except those substituents having the ability of solvation or forming disulfide bond with M444 at the active site of α-glycosidase, which enhance the interaction with enzyme. Compounds with S-configuration at C-3 show greater activity than those with R-configuration. The structure-activity relationship study is also supported by molecular docking analysis.

Iminosugars: potential inhibitors of liver glycogen phosphorylase.

Bioorg Med Chem

March 2001

Medicinal Chemistry Research, Novo Nordisk A/S, Health Care Discovery, Maaloev, Denmark.

The first synthesis of the single isomers (3R,4R,5R); (3S,4S,5S): (3R,4R,5S) and (3S,4S,5R) of 5-hydroxymethyl-piperidine-3,4-diol from Arecolin is reported, including the synthesis of a series of N-substituted derivatives of the (3R,4R,5R)-isomer (Isofagomine). The inhibitory effect of these isomers as well as of a series of N-substituted derivatives of the (3R,4R,5R)-isomer and selected hydroxypiperidine analogues on liver glycogen phosphorylase (GP) showed that the (3R,4R,5R) configuration was essential for obtaining an inhibitory effect at submicromolar concentration. The results also showed that all three hydroxy groups should be present and could not be substituted, nor were extra OH groups allowed if sub-micromolar inhibition should be obtained.
