Asymmetric syntheses of (-)-1-deoxymannojirimycin and (+)-1-deoxyallonojirimycin via a ring-expansion approach.

The asymmetric syntheses of (-)-1-deoxymannojirimycin and (+)-1-deoxyallonojirimycin are described herein. The ring-closing iodoamination of two epimeric bishomoallylic amines to give the corresponding 5-iodomethylpyrrolidines was followed by in situ ring-expansion to give two diastereoisomerically...
