Abstract

Stereoselective and biocatalysed synthetic routes to 3,4,5-trihydroxypiperidines and their N- and O-derivatisations are reviewed. These iminosugars effectively modulate glycosidase enzymes and display biological activities in immunosuppression, as anti-inflammatory agents and as anti-viral agents. Syntheses to these building blocks and their N- and O-derivatives are predicted to produce drug leads of high Fsp3 index. This is also crucial in the collection of structure-activity relationship data, particularly for diseases dependant on glycosidase modulation.
