H. Saika et al., SYNTHESIS OF (2R,3R)-, (2S,3S)-, (2R,3S)- AND (2S,3R)-IMIDAZOLE GLYCEROL PHOSPHATES (IGP) - SUBSTRATES FOR IGP-DEHYDRATASE (IGPD), Bioorganic & medicinal chemistry letters, 3(10), 1993, pp. 2129-2134
D-erythro-(2R,3S)-Imidazole glycerol phosphate (IGP) and its stereoiso
mers [(2S,3R), (2R,3R), (2S,3S)] have been synthesized via the Evans a
ldol reaction. The stereochemical assignments of these isomers and the
ir IGPD-substrate activities were studied.
