Cyclic imine sugars : towards the synthesis of transition-state mimics as potential glycosyltransferase inhibitors

This thesis describes the development of methodology for the synthesis of cyclic imine-sugars, and their use in the synthesis of aza-sugars as potential sugar-processing enzyme inhibitors. Our goals include the synthesis of cyclic imines of L-rhamnose, D-glucose, and L-idose stereochemistry, and the...
