Abstract
A facile and efficient synthesis of 6-O-methyl-1-deoxynojirimycin 4 from commercially available methyl α-D-glucopyranoside in 10 steps and 25% overall yield was reported. The synthetic strategy was based on the regioselective protection/deprotection at 6-O-position and cyclization as the main reaction steps. Compound 4 was evaluated for its inhibitory effect (IC50) on α-glucosidase using an in vitro assay. It showed improved inhibitory activity compared to 1-deoxynojirimycin and acarbose.
