Four diastereomers belonging to the family of casuarines, including casuarine (1), 6-epi-casuarine (2), 7-epi-casuarine (13) and 6,7-diepi-casuarine (14), have been synthesized from D-arabinose-derived cyclic nitrone 7 and nitrone-derived aldehyde 4 by a stereocomplementary strategy. Glycosidase inhibition comparison showed that 6-epi-casuarine (2) exhibits enhanced inhibition of trehalase (IC50 = 9.7 μM) and 6,7-diepi-casuarine (14) leads to specific inhibition of trehalase.
