Abstract

An efficient and general synthetic route to all eight stereoisomeric d-glycono-δ-lactams has been developed. The strategy involves, as a key step, a stereodivergent δ-lactam formation with configurational retention or inversion at C-4 of a starting γ-lactone to lead to two epimers of δ-lactam from one parent γ-lactone. Conformations of eight glycono-δ-lactams were examined by X-ray crystallographic analysis and molecular modeling. Analyses of ...
