Possibility as monosaccharide laxative of rare sugar alcohols.

Yakugaku Zasshi 129 , 575-580, (2009)

Allitol, D-talitol and L-iditol are sugar alcohols that are rare in nature. Due to their previous rarity, little is known about the laxative effects of these rare sugar alcohols. Therefore, reliable data on the laxative effect that these sugar alcohols cause ...

Synthesis of D-mannitol and L-iditol derivatives as monomers for the preparation of new regioregular AABB-type polyamides.

Carbohydr. Res. 337(7) , 607-11, (2002)

1,6-Diamino-1,6-dideoxy-2,3,4,5-tetra-O-methyl-D-mannitol (and its L-iditol analogue) suitable for their utilization as monomers in the preparation of linear polyamides are described. Regio- and stereoregular polyamides of the AABB-type have been prepared by ...

Responses of the ant Lasius niger to various compounds perceived as sweet in humans: a structure-activity relationship study.

Chem. Senses 26(3) , 231-7, (2001)

A behavioural study on the ant Lasius niger was performed by observing its feeding responses to 85 compounds presented in a two-choice situation (tested compound versus water control or sucrose solution). Among these compounds, only 21 were phagostimulating: ...

Synthesis of new β-1-C-alkylated imino-l-iditols: A comparative study of their activity as β-glucocerebrosidase inhibitors

Bioorg. Med. Chem. 18(7) , 2645-50, (2010)

A short synthesis of new beta-1-C-alkyl-1,5-dideoxy-1,5-imino-l-iditols by means of the diastereoselective addition of Grignard reagents onto a glucopyranosylamine is described. These compounds were evaluated as beta-glucocerebrosidase inhibitors and their ac...

2-Ene-1,4-diols by dimerization of terminal epoxides using hindered lithium amides.

Org. Lett. 7(12) , 2305-8, (2005)

[reaction: see text] Reaction of hindered lithium amides with readily available (enantiopure) terminal epoxides gives 2-ene-1,4-diols via carbenoid dimerization of the corresponding alpha-lithiated epoxides. D-Mannitol and D-iditol were synthesized using this...

Thermal mechanical analysis of frozen solutions of mannitol and some related stereoisomers: evidence of expansion during warming and correlation with vial breakage during lyophilization.

J. Parenter. Sci. Technol. 47(3) , 119-23, (1993)

The mechanical properties of frozen mannitol, L-iditol, dulcitol, and sorbitol solutions were measured as a function of temperature during warming (after freezing) using a thermal mechanical analyzer (TMA). The mannitol sample first underwent a contractive ph...

Inositol phosphates in the duckweed Spirodela polyrhiza L.

Biochem. J. 314 ( Pt 1) , 215-25, (1996)

We have undertaken an analysis of the inositol phosphates of Spirodela polyrhiza at a developmental stage when massive accumulation of InsP6 indicates that a large net synthesis is occurring. We have identified Ins3P, Ins(1,4)P2, Ins(3,4)P2 and possibly Ins(4...
