An intermolecular 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of a D-galactose-derived nitrone with dimethyl maleate was found to be perfectly diastereoselective at the nitrone carbon to give exclusive formation of isoxazolidine. The N-O bond reductive cleavage in isoxazolidine followed by lactam reduction afforded a pyrrolidine ring skeleton with sugar appendage that on acetonide cleavage and reductive amino-cyclization gave hitherto unknown hydroxymethyl-substituted hexa- and pentahydroxy perhydroazaazulenes.

Intramolecular N-alkylation of 2,3-O-isopropylidene-5-O-methanesulfonyl-6-O-t-butyldimethylsilyl-D-mann ofuranose-oxime 7 afforded a five-membered cyclic nitrone 9, which on N-O bond reductive cleavage followed by deprotection of -OTBS and acetonide functionalities gave 1,4-dideoxy-1,4-imino-L-allitol (DIA) 3. Addition of allylmagnesium chloride to nitrone 9 afforded alpha-allylated product 10a in high diastereoselectivity providing an easy entry to N-hydroxy-C1-alpha-allyl-substituted pyrrolidine iminosugar 4a after removal of protecting group, while N-O bond reductive cleavage in 10a afforded C1-alpha-allyl-pyrrolidine iminosugar 4b.

The Baylis-Hillman reaction of 3-o-benzyl-alpha-d-xylo-pentodialdo-1,4-furanose 2 afforded a diastereomeric mixture of L-ido- and D-gluco-configurated alpha-methylene-beta-hydroxy esters 3a and 3b, respectively, in 1:1 ratio. Conjugate addition of benzyl amine on 3a gave adduct 4a as a major product while, addition of benzyl amine to 3b gave only one diastereomer 4b. Reduction of ester functionality in 4a/4b, opening of 1,2-acetonide functionality followed by reductive amino-cyclization under hydrogenation condition afforded azocanes 1c/1d in good yield.
