Anderson, Wayne K.,Coburn, Robert A.,Gopalsamy, Ariamala,Howe, Trevor J.
, p. 169 - 170 (1990)
A facile selective acylation on the 6-hydroxyl group of the polyhydroxylated indolizidine alkaloid castanospermine, (1), has been achieved by the in situ use of a preformed dibutyl organotin derivative.

Page 8, (2010/11/30)
The present invention relates to a process for preparing a compound of formula (I), wherein R is C1-C10 alkyl, phenyl or substituted phenyl, comprising treating a compound of formula (II), with bis(tributyltin) oxide in an organic solvent selected from the group consisting of o-xylene, m-xylene, p-xylene and mixed xylenes; and subsequently treating the reaction mixture with a compound of formula (III), wherein X is halogen and R is defined as above.

Furneaux, Richard H.,Gainsford, Graeme J.,Mason, Jennifer M.,Tyler, Peter C.
, p. 2131 - 2160 (2007/10/02)
Methodology for the selective functionalisation of castanospermine is outlined which has allowed the synthesis of a number of analogues selectively modified at C-6.Australine and some australine analugues have also been synthesized from castanospermine.
Esters of castanospermine in the treatment of cerebral malaria
-
, (2008/06/13)
Red blood cells which are infected with the parasite P. falciparum cause the cells to become sticky and less deformable. This results in a build-up of cells on the vascular wall and creates occlusions to blood flow which are thought to cause the cerebral, renal and liver complications of P. falciparum infections. Certain esters of castanospermine prevent or reduce the adhesion of falciparum infected blood cells to the vascular endothelial wall and are a useful adjunct in the treatment of malaria.
Synthesis of potent anti-HIV agents: esters of castanospermine

, p. 2829 - 2832 (2007/10/02)
The syntheses of 6-O- and 7-O-acyl-derivatives of the indolizidine alkaloid castanospermine, are described. These compounds are potent inhibitors of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and are potential anti-AIDS agents.
