Abstract

While an epoxide on a sugar-derived aziridine studying was opened, an unexpected formation of bicyclic compounds was observed. The structure of these bicycles depended on the nature of the protecting group on the nitrogen atom of the aziridine. These compounds appeared to be weak glycosidase inhibitors.
