Various polyhydroxy piperidine azasugars have been synthesized from precursors 18a and 18b, obtained in both enantiomeric forms from d-ribose. Out of these polyhydroxy piperidine azasugars, 22, 39 and 20 were found to be potent as well as selective inhibitors of α-glucosidase with Ki values ranging as low as 1.07 μM, 16.4 μM, and 88.2 μM, respectively. Replacement of the hydroxy methylene moiety of 19 (Ki 33% at 1 mM) by an amino methylene moiety (32, Ki 36.8 μM) showed a remarkable increase in the activity (almost 30 times). Furthermore, increasing the lipophilicity of 33 by N-alkylation with a dodecyl group (36) showed a three-fold enhancement in the activity (Ki 217 μM to Ki 72.3 μM).
