One-Pot Synthesis of Hydroxylated Alkaloids from Sugars via a Pictet–Spengler-Type Reaction

An efficient and convenient strategy has been successfully developed for the preparation of novel hydroxylated alkaloid derivatives (also called fused multicyclic iminosugars) from <i>p</i>-toluenesulfonylated sugars through a Pictet–Spengler-type mechanism. This method is highly stereos...

description An efficient and convenient strategy has been successfully developed for the preparation of novel hydroxylated alkaloid derivatives (also called fused multicyclic iminosugars) from <i>p</i>-toluenesulfonylated sugars through a Pictet–Spengler-type mechanism. This method is highly stereoselective, does not require metal catalysts, and capable of conducting gram level reactions (with a 53% yield). Some of such iminosugars had an intermediate antiproliferative effect on HCT116 tumor cells.
