Abstract
The racemic gluco‐configured norbornanes 4 and 16 were prepared and tested as inhibitors of __β‐__glucosidases. The known alcohol 5 was deprotected to provide the triol 6. Silylation (→ 7), monobenzoylation (→ 8/9), and oxidation provided the regioisomeric ketones 10 and 11. Reduction of 10 gave the desired endo‐alcohol 13, albeit in low yield, while reduction of the isomeric ketone 11 provided mostly the altro‐configured endo‐alcohol 12. The alcohol 13 was desilylated to 14. Debenzoylation to 15 followed by hydrogenolytic deprotection gave the amino triol 4 that was reductively aminated to the benzylamine 16. The amino triols 4 and 16 proved weak inhibitors of the β‐glucosidase from Caldocellum saccharolyticum (4: IC~50~ = 5.6 mm; 16: IC~50~ = 3.3 mm) and from sweet almonds (16: IC~50~ = 5.5 mm). A comparison of 4 with the manno‐configured norbornane 3 shows that 3 is a better inhibitor of snail β‐mannosidase than 4 is of __β‐__glucosidases, in keeping with earlier results suggesting that these β‐glycosidases enforce a different conformational itinerary.

Through the use of a series of N-substituted (B-o-galactopyranosylmethyl)amines @Gal-CH,NHR) and the corresponding N-substituted C-(P-u-galactopyranosyl)formamides @Gal-CO-NHR), it has been determined that the inhibitor binding constant is influenced more by the pK, of the amine group than by the na
