Abstract
The synthesis of novel somatostatin mimetics from 1‐deoxynojirimycin (DNJ) is described. The dipeptide mimetic, which respectively displayed the side chains of tryptophan and lysine at the nitrogen and O6 atoms of the iminosugar scaffold is a ligand (K~i~=3.2 μM) for the human somatostatin receptor subtype 4 (hSSTR4) but has lower affinity (K~i~>100 μM) for hSSTR5. A benzylated analogue of the Trp‐Lys mimetic displays higher affinity for hSSTR5 (K~i~=5 μM).

In multivalent glycoligands including cluster glycosides, one type of sugar epitope is normally clustered. Such molecules have been valuable tools for investigation and inhibition of cell adhesion processes. They have, for example, served as in vitro antiadhesives in mannose-specific bacterial adhes
