Synthesis of the antibiotic (+)-nojirimycin has been accomplished starting from commercially available 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-benzyl-D-glucopyranose 2. This D-glucopyranose derivative was converted into the D-glucopyranose dimethyl acetal 5 by thioacetalisation, C-5 oxidation and transacetalisation with methanol. Introduction of the 5-amino substituent with the correct D-g/i/co-stereochemistry was realised by conversion of ketone 5 into the corresponding oxime 6, followed by diastereoselective reduction with lithium aluminium hydride. After protection of the resulting primary amine as its tert-buly] carbamate, the desired D-g/i/co-amine 7 could be separated from the unwanted L-;Y/o-isomer 8. Hydrogenolysis of 7 followed by treatment with aqueous sulfur dioxide yielded 1-deoxynojirimycin-l-sulfonic acid 9, which was further transformed into (+)-nojirimycin 1.
Synthesis of (+)- and (-)-nojirimycin and their 1-deoxy derivatives from myo-inositol

, p. 185 - 194 (2007/10/02)
The conversion of the naturally abundant cyclitol, myo-inositol (4), into (+)-nojirimycin (1a), its enantiomer (1b), and their 1-deoxy analogues (2a and 2b) is described. Biological assay of 2a, 2b, and the bisulfite adducts of 1a and 1b (3a and 3b) showed that the compounds having the unnatural L-gluco configuration (2b and 3b) possess moderate-to-high inhibitory activity against almond β-D-glucosidase and bovine liver β-D-galactosidase.
