A. Tuch et al., SYNTHESIS OF (2S,3R)-3-AMINO-2-HYDROXYDECANOIC ACID AND (3R,4R)-3-AMINO-4-HYDROXYAZEPANE FROM D-ISOASCORBIC ACID, Tetrahedron : asymmetry, 7(10), 1996, pp. 2901-2909
Taking advantage of the high functionality of an enantiopure protected
syn-2R-amino-1,3,4-triol derivative, easily available on a multigram
scale from D-isoascorbic acid, several biologically active compounds h
ave been synthesized such as the (2S,3R)-3-amino-2-hydroxydecanoic aci
d (AHDA), the N-terminal moiety of microginin, and the (3R,4R)-3-amino
-4-hydroxyazepane, the ophiocordin and balanol core structure. Copyrig
