Epimerization of C5 of an N-hydroxypyrrolidine in the synthesis of swainsonine related iminosugars
Epimerization of C5 of an N-hydroxypyrrolidine ring by regioselective oxidation to a nitrone followed by diastereoselective reduction provides a newapproachto the synthesis of swainsonine and related compounds. The only protection in the synthesis of the potent mannosidase inhibitor DIM (1, 4-dideox...
