The first step in the biosynthesis of neuraminic acid, the "epimerisation" of UDP-GlcNAc to ManNAc, is catalyzed by UDP-GlcNAc 2-epimerase. In this paper we report the synthesis of the C-glycosidic UDP-GlcNAc analogues 1-5 as substrate-based inhibitors of this enzyme. The focus is on the optimal distance and geometry of the connection between the sugar and the UDP-moiety, which are both important for recognition by UDP-GlcNAc 2-epimerase.

Synthesis of α-C-ethylene phosphate and phosphonate as well as α-C-methylene phosphate analogues of N-acetyl-α-D-glucosamine 1-phosphate is reported starting from the common perbenzylated 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-α-C-allyl glucoside. Anomerisation of the corre
