Synthesis and antiangiogenic activity of new carbohydrate derivatives

One-pot synthesis of bicyclic sugar oxazolidinone from d-glucosamine

Herein we report a one-pot and efficient method for the synthesis of a 1,2-cis fused furanoside bicyclic oxazolidinone derivative of d-glucosamine via pyranose to furanose conversion and concomitant cyclization involving the N-Troc group.

Novel bicyclic oxazolone derivatives as anti-angiogenic agents

Novel bicyclic tetrahydropyrano[3,2-d]oxazolones derivatives, analogues of Fumagillin, were synthesised via a stereocontrolled oxidative-rearrangement of furylcarbinols and subsequent treatment with the appropriate isocyanate. These compounds demonstrated potent antiangiogenic activity.
