Transformation of quercitols into 4-methylenecyclohex-5-ene-1,2,3-triol derivatives, precursors for the chemical chaperones N-octyl-4-epi-¦Â-valienamine (NOEV) and N-octyl-¦Â-valienamine (NOV)

(+)-proto-Quercitol (1) and (?-vibo-quercitol (2), both of which could be readily prepared by the bioconversion of myo-inositol, were successfully converted into the corresponding 4-methylenecyclohex-5-ene-1,2,3-triol derivatives. These compounds were demonstrated to be suitable precursors, preserving their configurations, for bioactive carba-aminosugars such as the potent chemical chaperone drug candidates, N-octyl-4-epi-¦Â-valienamine (NOEV, 3) and N-octyl-¦Â-valienamine (NOV, 4).
