  • Patent number: 8445670
    Abstract: A method of synthesizing stereochemically defined iminocyclitol comprises replacing an intraring oxygen in a cyclic sugar by an intraring imine to form an iminocyclitol, wherein said iminocyclitol has a defined stereochemical configuration different from a stereochemical configuration of the cyclic sugar. The invention also provides combinatorial libraries of iminocyclitol compounds, allowing for diverse C1 and N-substitution. In addition, provided are methods of treating viral infections with iminocyclitols compounds.
    Type: Grant
