The pre-RNA world hypothesis postulates that RNA was preceded in the evolution of life by a simpler genetic material, but it is not known if such systems can fold into structures capable of eliciting a desired function. Presumably, whatever chemistry

The Hantzsch reaction of C-glycosyl aldehyde/enamino ester/beta-ketoester systems under l-proline catalysis to give dihydropyridine C-glycoconjugates is reported. Asymmetric cyclocondensations of differentially substituted enamine and beta-dicarbonyl components with formyl alpha-L-C-threofuranoside and with the alpha-D-isomer were also carried out. Each reaction occurred

A general strategy for the synthesis of 1-deoxy-azasugars from a chiral glycine equivalent and 4-carbon building blocks is described. Diastereoselective aldol additions of metalated bislactim ethers to matched and mismatched erythrose or threose acetonides and intramolecular N-alkylation (by reductive amination

Novel aldol addition reactions of dihydroxyacetone (DHA) and hydroxyacetone (HA) to a variety of aldehydes catalyzed by D-fructose-6-phosphate aldolase (FSA) are presented. In a chemical-enzymatic cascade reaction approach, 1-deoxynojirimycin and 1-deoxymannojirimycin were synthesized starting from (R)- and (S)-3-(N-Cbz-amino)-2-hydroxypropanal, respectively.
