Disclosed is a novel inosose compound represented by the general formula: STR1 wherein X1 and X2 are both halogen; X1 is hydrogen and X2 is halogen; or X1 is --SQ1 and X2 is --SQ2 (each of Q1 and Q2 is lower alkyl or Q1 and Q2 may form lower alkylene), R1 is a protective group for hydroxyl and Y is =O, =N--Z (Z is hydroxyl which may be protected) or STR2 (A is hydrogen or an amine residue), particularly to the compound wherein the symbol Y is oxygen. The inosose compound is useful as intermediates for production of valiolamine and the N-substituted derivatives thereof, which have potent α-glucosidase inhibiting activities and are useful as preventives or therapeutics for symptoms of hyperglycemia and various diseases derived therefrom in human and animals, such as diabetes, obesity and hyperlipemia.
