Syntheses of the enantiomers of 1-deoxynojirimycin and 1-deoxyaltronojirimycin via chemo- and diastereoselective olefinic oxidation of unsaturated amines.

Oxidation of enantiomerically pure (R)-N(1)-1'-(1''-naphthyl)ethyl-2,7-dihydro-1H-azepine with m-CPBA in the presence of HBF(4) and BnOH gave (3S,4R,5S,6S,1'R)-N(1)-1'-(1''-naphthyl)ethyl-3-hydroxy-4-benzyloxy-5,6-epoxyazepane as the major product and as a single d...
