The synthesis of amino-derivatives of castanospermine and australine and their characterisation as inhibitors of the exo-beta-D-glucosaminidase CsxA through enzyme kinetics and X-ray structural analysis is described.

Organic letters, 12(22), 5330-5333 (2010-10-23)
The asymmetric total synthesis of the α-glucosidase inhibitor (+)-castanospermine is reported. The central theme in our approach to this polyhydroxylated alkaloid is the simultaneous generation of the piperidine ring and the C-1/8a erythro stereodiad through the diastereoselective, oxamidation of an

Two new C-1 epimeric hydroxymethyl castanospermine congeners 2a and 2b, synthesized by stereocontrolled intramolecular double reductive amination of D-glucose derived beta-keto ester as a key step, showed impressive immuno-potentiating property. The bioactivity was mediated through up-regulation of T(H1)/T(H2) cytokine ratio.
