Thio-sugars. IV: Design and synthesis of S-linked fucoside analogs as a new class of alpha-L-fucosidase inhibitors

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 1998 Nov 17;8(22):3265-8. doi: 10.1016/s0960-894x(98)00596-4.

Abstract

alpha-1-Thio-L-fucose derivative 4 and 5 as new alpha-fucosidase inhibitors (K1 = 4.6, and 5.9 microM) have been synthesized in three steps by base catalyzed coupling with bromonitromethane followed by reduction of the nitro group with sodium borohydride/cobalt chloride complex and acetylation.
