Synthesis of novel sugar derived aziridines, as starting materials giving access to sugar amino acid derivatives

View document

Bibliographic Details
Summary:d-Erythrosyl aziridines were obtained from d-erythrosyl triazoles either by photolysis or through diazirine intermediates. These were found to undergo rich, high yielding chemistry by reaction with protic acids (HCl, BiI3/H2O and trifluoroacetic acid) leading to two types of furanoid sugar α-amino acids, and polyhydroxylprolines. Based on experimental evidence, reaction mechanisms have been proposed for the syntheses.
