Abstract

A new approach for the synthesis of selectively blocked 3-amino-3-deoxyaldopentoses is presented. The strategy is based on employment of a pyridinium salt photocyclization-aziridine ring-opening sequence to prepare stereochemically defined, enantiomerically enriched aminocyclopentendiol derivatives. Ring-opening reactions transform these substances into terminally differentiated aminopolyols, which serve as precursors to the target amino-aldopentoses. The utility of this strategy is demonstrated by its application to the syntheses of protected derivatives of D- and L-3-amino-3-deoxyxylose, L-3-amino-3-deoxyarabinose, and a late-stage intermediate in a potential route to N-acetylneuraminic acid.
