A series of d-glucose derivatives that have been modified at C-4 were synthesised from D-galactose as potential chain terminators of cellulose biosynthesis. Two compounds displayed herbicidal activity in pre-emergence tests and in addition a cell expansio

A divergent approach was employed for the synthesis of aminosugars, from which a novel library of aminoglycoside antibiotics (pyranmycins) was synthesized. Pyranmycins have comparable antibacterial activity as neomycin, a clinically used aminoglycoside antibiotic, against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, and Mycobacterium smegmatis. In addition, pyranmycins, like streptomycin, are bacteriocidal while isoniazid (INH) is bacteriostatic. Therefore, pyranmycins may provide new therapeutic options in the treatment against tuberculosis. Several members of pyranmycins also manifest modest anti-Tat and anti-Rev activities, which may aid in the development of new anti-HIV agents. Although the antibacterial activity of pyranmycins against aminoglycoside resistant bacteria is less than expected, the synthetic methodologies of utilizing a library of aminosugars can be a model for future studies of glycodiversification or glycorandomization.
Syntheses of trehazolin derivatives and evaluation as glycosidase inhibitors

The trehazolin derivatives 9-12 were synthesized from the aminocyclitol (7), which is the degradation product of trehazolin (5). In particular, compounds 9-11 were pseudodisaccharides that underwent replacement of the corresponding nonreducing D-glucose m
Amidine pseudodisaccharides

The synthesis of several aminoglucopyranose-based amidine pseudodisaccharides is described. They may serve as glycosidase inhibitors by virtue of structural similarities to both the reducing and non-reducing pyranose units involved in glycolysis.
