A reaction sequence involving the chemoselective olefinic oxidation of N(1)-benzyl-2,7-dihydro-1H-azepine with m-CPBA in the presence of HBF(4) and BnOH followed by ring contraction facilitates the stereoselective preparation of either of the epoxide diastereoisomers of (2RS,3SR)-N(1)-benzyl-2-chloromethyl-3-benzyloxy-4,5-epoxypiperidine by simple modification of the reaction conditions. Epoxide ring opening, functional group interconversion, and deprotection allow the synthesis of (+/-)-1-deoxynojirimycin and (+/-)-1-deoxyaltronojirimycin.

D010084 Oxidation-Reduction A chemical reaction in which an electron is transferred from one molecule to another. The electron-donating molecule is the reducing agent or reductant; the electron-accepting molecule is the oxidizing agent or oxidant. Reducing and oxidizing agents function as conjugate reductant-oxidant pairs or redox pairs (Lehninger, Principles of Biochemistry, 1982, p471). Redox,Oxidation Reduction
