The following three stereoisomers of castanospermine have been prepared: (1R,6R,7R,8S,8aR)-1,6,7,8-tetrahydroxyindolizidine (1), (1R,6S,7S,8S,8aR)-1,6,7,8-tetrahydroxyindolizidine (2), and (1R,6R,7S,8S,8aR)-1,6,7,8-tetrahydroxyindolizidine (3).Each of the
Biocatalytic Desymmetrizations of Pentitol Derivatives
Burgess, Kevin,Henderson, Ian
, p. 5701 - 5704 (2007/10/02)
Several acylations of pentitol derivatives mediated by Candida cylindracea have been shown to be enantio-, or diastereo-, group selective; a pattern emerges from the selectivities of these reactions which may have some predictive value.Key words: acylation; catalysis; Candida cylindracea lipase; kinetic amplification of diastereomeric excess
