Description
The present invention relates to novel aminocyclitols, which are intermediates for preparing the compounds having .alpha.-glucosidase inhibitory activity.
S. Horii et al. previously isolated, as a constituent of validamycin, an antibiotic, the compound of the formula, ##STR2## which was named "valienamine" (Y. Kameda and S. Horii; Journal of the Chemical Society; Chemical Communications, 1972, 746 to 747), and reported that valienamine possesses an action of suppressing the function of .alpha.-glucoside hydrolase (Y. Kameda et al., Journal of Antibiotics 33, 1575 to 1576 (1980)).
S. Horii et al. investigated an .alpha.-glycosidase inhibitory activity of various compounds which are similar to valienamine in chemical structure, and after extensive research, found that valiolamine, a compound of the formula ##STR3## which was discovered and isolated from a culture broth of a strain of the genus streptomyces possesses .alpha.glucosidase inhibitory activity.
These findings were further followed by continued studies on how to prepare valiolamine by synthetic method, and as a result, the present inventors found that a compound of the formula ##STR4## is an important intermediate for preparing valiolamine or its derivatives, which has culminated in the present invention.
In the above formula [I], Y is hydrogen or a halogen such as fluorine, chlorine, bromine and iodine; X is hydroxyl group, a halogen such as fluorine, chlorine, bromine and iodine or an acyloxy group represented by --OR.sup.3 where R.sup.3 is an acyl group such as alkanoyl groups of 1 to 5 carbon atoms exemplified by formyl, acetyl, propionyl and butyryl, and aromatic acyl groups exemplified by benzoyl. Hydroxyl group represented by X may be protected and represented by OR.sup.1.
As the protective group for hydroxyl group represented by R.sup.1, use is made of protective groups which are employed as hydroxyl protective groups in the chemistry of the sugars, such as acyl type protective groups, ether type protective groups and acetal or ketal type protective groups.

Examples of alkanoyl groups of 1 to 5 carbon atoms are as defined above regarding R.sup.3. Examples of alkoxy of 1 to 5 carbon atoms or alkoxy in alkoxycarbonyl of 2 to 6 carbon atoms include methoxy, ethoxy, propoxy, butoxy, pentoxy etc.
More concretely, the examples of acyl type protective groups are formyl, acetyl, propionyl, isopropionyl, butyryl, pivaloyl, benzoylformyl, trifluoroacetyl, phenoxyacetyl, methoxyacetyl, ethoxyacetyl, propoxyacetyl, 3-benzoylpropionyl, methoxycarbonyl, ethoxycarbonyl, propoxycarbonyl, isobutyloxycarbonyl, pentyloxycarbonyl, benzoyl, p-nitrobenzyl, p-phenylbenzoyl, phenoxycarbonyl, p-nitrophenoxycarbonyl, benzyloxycarbonyl, etc.
The ether type protective groups include e.g. alkyl groups of 1 to 5 carbon atoms; alkenyl groups of 2 to 4 carbon atoms; trialkylsilyl groups of 3 to 6 atoms; and benzyl groups which may be substituted by alkoxy of 1 to 3 carbon atoms. The alkyl group may be substituted by phenyl or alkoxy of 1 to 5 carbon atoms.
More concretely, the ether type proptective groups are methyl, ethyl, tert-butyl, ethoxyethyl, allyl, trityl, trimethylsilyl, dimethylethylsilyl, benzyl, p-methoxybenzyl etc.

with a halogenating agent and, if necessary, removing the protective group.
An alkyl group represented by R means a straight-chain, branched saturated or unsaturated alkyl group of 1 to 10 carbon atoms, or a cyclic saturated or unsaturated alkyl group of 3 to 8 carbon atoms.

Further, the straight-chain, branched saturated or unsaturated alkyl of 1 to 10 carbon atoms may be substituted by cyclic saturated or unsaturated alkyl group of 1 to 10 carbon atoms, for example by those cyclic alkyl groups mentioned above.
As the halogenating agent, use is made of a halogen such as chlorine, bromine and iodine, halogen halides such as iodine chloride, iodine bromide and bromine chloride, hypohalogenous acids such as hypochlorous acid, hypobromous acid and hypoiodous acid, salts of hypohalogenous acids with metals such as sodium, potassium, calcium, barium and copper (cuprous and cupric), hypohalogenous acid esters such as methyl, ethyl, tert-butyl and 2,4,6-tribromophenyl esters of hypohalogenous acids, N-halogenosuccinimides such as N-chlorosuccinimide, N-bromosuccinimide and N-iodosuccinimide, metal halides such as titanium tetrachloride, cupric bromide and potassium bromide, N,N-dibromobenzenesulfonamide, N-chloroacetamide, N-bromoacetamide, N-bromopropionamide, trichloroisocyanuric acid, N-chlorourea, methyl N,N-dichlorocarbamate, ethyl N-chlorocarbamate, iodobenzenedichloride, bromotrinitromethane, etc. These reagents may be employed together with oxidizing agents such as oxygen and hydrogen peroxide, acids such as p-toluenesulfonic acid, formic acid, acetic acid, hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid and boron trifluoride, heavy metal salts of organic carboxylic acids such as silver acetate, silver n-butyrate, silver benzoate and thallium acetate, heavy metal oxides such as silver oxide and mercury oxide, metal carbonates such as silver carbonate and potassium carbonate, alkali metal halides such as sodium iodide, potassium iodide, lithium bromide and lithium chloride, bases such as pyridine, etc.
The reaction is normally carried out in solvents such as water, lower alcohols (e.g. methyl alcohol, ethyl alcohol, n-propyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol, n-butyl alcohol, isobutyl alcohol, sec-butyl alcohol and tert-butyl alcohol etc.), N,N-dimethylformamide, dimethylsulfoxide, sulfolane, dioxane, tetrahydrofuran, acetonitrile, acetone, chloroform, dichloromethane, carbon tetrachloride, benzene, and acetic acid, solely or as a mixed solvent. The reaction temperature is not particularly limited, and the reaction is carried out normally at 0.degree. to 70.degree. C. Depending on the type of halogenating agents, the reaction may be conducted, by cooling or by heating, in the range of from -80.degree. C. to the refluxing temperature of the solvent. The reaction time varies depending upon the reaction temperature, and is normally in the range of 30 minutes to 24 hours.
The thus obtained compound [I] wherein X is a hydroxyl group and Y is a halogen can be led to valiolamine by dehalogenation and hydrolysis, and, if necessary removing the protective group. In dehalogenation, use is advantageously made of a wide variety of metal hydride complex reducing agents, particularly boron hydride complex such as sodium borohydride, potassium borohydride, lithium borohydride, sodium trimethoxyborohydride, lithium triethylborohydride, and sodium borocyanohydride.
As a reaction solvent, for example, use can be made of water, alcohols such as methanol, ethanol, propanol and butanol, N,N-dimethylformamide, N-methylacetamide, dimethylsulfoxide, glymes such as methyl cellosolve, dimethyl cellosolve and diethylene glycol dimethyl ether, dioxane, tetrahydrofuran, acetonitrile, or mixed solvents thereof or mixtures of these polar solvents with non-polar solvents such as ethyl acetate and benzene.
The reaction conditions vary with the type of reducing agents, and as to the reaction temperature, the reaction is conducted normally at room temperature, under ice-cooling as the case may be, or by heating up to the refluxing temperature of the solvent when occasion demands. The reaction time also varies depending upon the reaction temperature as well as the type of reducing agents, and the objective can be achieved by conducting the reaction normally for a period of time in the range of several minutes to 24 hours.
As the procedure of dehalogenation, use can be made of the catalytic reduction procedure as well. that is to say, the procedure can be conducted into practice by shaking or stirring a starting material in an appropriate solvent under a stream of hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst for catalytic reduction. As the catalyst for catalytic reduction, for example, use is made of palladium carbon, palladium black, Raney nickel, platinum black, platinum dioxide, etc. As the reaction solvent, for example, use is made of water, alcohols such as methanol and ethanol, dioxane, tetrahydrofuran, dimethylformamide or mixed solvents thereof. The reaction is conducted normally at ordinary temperature and at atmospheric pressure, but also may be carried out under pressure or under heating. The reaction time is normally in the range of 2 to 18 hours.
In addition, dehalogenation by the use of an organic tin hydride may be carried out. That is to say, the objective can be achieved by suspending or dissolving a starting material in an organic solvent such as benzene, toluene, xylene, ethyl ether, dioxane and diethylene glycol monoethyl ether etc., and adding for reaction an organic tin hydride such as (n-C.sub.4 H.sub.9).sub.3 SnH, (n-C.sub.4 H.sub.9).sub.2 SnH.sub.2, (n-C.sub.3 H.sub.7).sub.3 SnH, (C.sub.2 H.sub.5).sub.3 SnH, (C.sub.6 H.sub.5).sub.3 SnH and (C.sub.6 H.sub.5).sub.2 SnH.sub.2 etc., and an initiator for radical reaction (e.g., azo compounds such as .alpha.,.alpha.'-azobisisobutyronitrile, peroxides such as benzoyl peroxide, others such as triphenylboric acid, etc.), preferably .alpha.,.alpha.'-azobisisobutyronitrile.
Besides, use can be made of the procedure which comprises conducting dehalogenation with the use of metal complexes of aluminium hydride such as lithium aluminium hydride, sodium aluminium hydride, sodium triethoxyaluminium hydride, sodium bis(2-methoxyethoxy)aluminium hydride and sodium diethylaluminium hydride, the procedure consisting of a reaction with sodium or lithium or liquid ammonia, the procedure of conducting dehalogenation with zinc and hydrochloric acid or acetic acid, the procedure of carrying out dehalogenation by an electrolytic reduction reaction, etc. The reaction mixture as obtained by the above procedure may be subjected to hydrolysis without prurification or after being partly purified. The hydrolysis of the cyclic carbamate bond (--O--CO--NH--) in the compounds [I] is conducted normally in an aqueous solution or an appropriate solvent such as organic solvents exemplified by methanol, ethanol, propanol, acetone, dioxane and tetrahydrofuran or mixed solution thereof with water in the presence of inorganic base such as alkali metal hydroxide alkaline earth-metal hydroxide (e.g. sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, barium hydroxide and sodium methoxide etc.) or in the presence of inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid and sulfuric acid etc. The reaction temperature is normally from room temperature to the refluxing temperature of the solvent, while the reaction time varies depending upon the reaction temperaturs and is normally in the neighborhood of 5 to 24 hours.
Dehalogenation may be conducted after hydrolyzing the cyclic carbamate bond (--O--CO--NH--) in the compound, or the hydrolysis and dehalogenation may be carried out at the same time.
The compound [I] wherein X is a halogen and Y is hydrogen may be acyloxylated to give a compound of the formula ##STR7## wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.3 are as defined above.
In the acyloxylation reaction, use is normally made of metal salts of carboxylic acids. As such metal salts of carboxylic acids, use is made of salts of lower alkyl carboxylic acids such as formic acid, acetic acid, propionic acid and butyric acid and aromatic carboxylic acids such as benzoic acid with metals such as sodium, potassium and silver. As the suitable solvents, use is made of organic solvents such as dimethylformamide, dimethylacetamide, 2-methoxyethanol, dioxane and tetrahydrofuran, solely or as mixed solvent, or the mixed solvents of these solvents with water. The reaction is preferably carried out by heating to about 50.degree. to 150.degree. C. and the reaction time varies with the reaction temperature and is normally in the range of 1 to 24 hours.
The reaction may be normally conducted in a suitable solvent. In cases in which a water-containing solvent is employed as solvent, the hydrolysis reaction in some instances takes place simultaneously with acyloxylation to form hydroxymethyl derivatives or a reaction of eliminating or replacing the hydroxyl-protecting group may take place. Such reactions also fall into the scope of the present invention.
Valiolamine can be obtained by subjecting to a hydrolysis reaction the compounds of the formulas [I] wherein Y is hydrogen. The hydrolysis reaction of the cyclic carbamate bond (--O--CO--NH--) in the compounds, and the hydrolysis reaction to the --CH.sub.2 OH group of the --CH.sub.2 X group (X is a halogen or an acyloxy group) in the compounds are carried out in the presence of inorganic base such as sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, barium hydroxide and calcium hydroxide, or in the presence of acids such as hydrochloric acid and sulfuric acid. As the reaction solvent, use is normally made of water, and in addition, lower alcohols such as methanol, ethanol, propanol and butanol, and organic solvents such as dioxane, tetrahydrofuran, acetone, dimethylformamide and dimethylsulfoxide, solely or as mixed solvent, or the mixed solvents thereof with water. The reaction temperature is normally in the range of room temperature to 150.degree. C., and the reaction time varies with the reaction temperature as well and is normally in the range of 1 to 24 hours. The elimination reaction of the acyl group of R.sup.3 in the compounds of the formula [III] normally takes place simultaneously with the hydrolysis reaction of the cyclic carbamate bond (--O--CO--NH--) under the above-mentioned hydrolysis conditions. Yet, when only the elimination reaction of the acyl group of R.sup.3 is carried out separately, such reaction can be conducted under milder hydrolysis conditions, for example by employing weak bases such as ammonia. In the step of converting the compounds of the formula [I] wherein Y is hydrogen;
into valiolamine, the conversion reaction of the --CH.sub.2 X group to the --CH.sub.2 OH.sub.3 group, or the hydrolysis reaction of the acyl group of R.sup.3, the hydrolysis reaction of the cyclic carbamate bond (--O--CO--NH--) and the reaction of removal of the hydroxyl protective group of R.sup.1 may all be carried out simultaneously or may each be conducted separately and the order of these reaction may be optionally reversed.
Although it is not always necessary to introduce the hydroxyl protective group of R.sup.1, such introduction in some instances are advantageous, for example, for the purpose of enhacing the solubilities of compounds in reaction solvent or of avoiding undesirable side reactions. These protective groups, after the reaction, may be removed by the known procedures which are suitable for their respective protective group.
In a series of steps for deriving valiolamine from a compound of the formula [II], it is not always necessary to isolate intermediates in the respective steps, and the reaction mixture may be employed in the reaction of the subsequent step as such or after being purified to some extent.
Valiolamine has an inhibitory activity against .alpha.-glucoside hydrolase. Namely, the valiolamine suppresses the metabolism of carbohydrates in man and other animals, and exhibits the blood-sugar elevation suppressing function, and is found to be stable crystals or powder and almost free from toxicity (LD.sub.50 in rats, not lower than 500 mg/kg) and is useful for hyperglycemic symptoms and various disorders caused by hyperglycemia such as obesity, adiposity, hyperlipemia (arteriosclerosis), diabetes, and prediabetes as well as prophylaxis of diseases attributable to sugar metabolism by microorganisms in oral cavity such as dental carries. Valiolamine or a salt thereof is used solely or as mixtures with non-toxic carriers, and may be utilized with liquid or solid foods such as coffee, beverages, fruit juice, beer, milk, jam and sweet bean jam (strained or mashed bean paste boiled down with sugar) etc., seasoning agents, or the principal and subsidiary foods, etc. Foods prepared by adding valiolamine or a salt thereof is useful as a therapeutic diet for patients affected with metabolic abnormality and as a prephylactic diet for healthy persons as well. In addition, valiolamine is of use as an additive for livestock feed which helps to obtain low-fat, high-quality animal flesh for food. Therefore, valiolamine is of value as drugs, food additives and livestock feed additives solely or with an appropriate carrier. Valiolamine is administered orally or parenterally, preferably orally. It can be used directly or in the form of a food additive, or can be administered before or after meals. It can also be used in combination with sweetening, preservatives, dispersing agents and coloring agents.
Specifically, a postprandial blood glucose rise can be suppressed, for example, by taking the preparations containing about 20 to 500 mg of valiolamine after each meal. In addition, valiolamine in the range of 0.01 to 1% relative to the carbohydrate content of food, for example, may be added to various foods.
In the case of blending into livestock feed, the addition ratio of 0.001 to 1% relative to the carbohydrate content of feed is desirable.
The exomethylene derivative (6), that is the compound [II] wherein --A--B-- is ##STR8## can be produced for example by the procedure as shown in FIG. 1, using validamine [The Journal of Antibiotics, vol. 24, pp 59 to 63 (1971)] as a starting material. ##STR9##
The position number for each of the carbon atoms is assigned as shown in validamine of the formula (1) of FIG. 1 when "Validamine" is employed in the nomenclature of the present compounds.
The compound (2) in FIG. 1 is obtained by reacting validamine (1) with a carbonylating agent of the formula RO--CO--Z. In the carbonylating agent, Z is a halogen such as chlorine and bromine, or a residue of active esters which are prepared by coupling N-hydroxysuccinimide, N-hydroxyphthalimide, N-hydroxy-5-norbornene-2,3-dicarboxyimide, 2-hydroxyimino-2-phenylacetonitrile, N-hydroxypiperidine, 3-hydroxypyridine, p-nitrophenol, 2,4-dinitrophenol, pentachlorophenol, 2,4,5-trichlorophenol, imidazole, 1-hydroxybenzotriazole, 4,6-dimethyl-2-mercaptopyridine, 4,6-dimethylaminopyridine, or 4,6-diethylaminopyridine, etc., with said carboxylic acid; Z may also be a carbonic ester residue as is the case with di-tert-butyl carbonate, diethyl carbonate, diphenyl carbonate, etc.
The reaction of the amino group of validamine with the above carbonylating agent can be carried out in water, or other suitable solvent such as organic solvents exemplified by acetone, dioxane, tetrahydrofuran, methanol, dimethylformamide, chloroform and dichloromethane, solely, or as mixed solvent or mixed solvent thereof with water. This reaction is carried out in the presence of an inorganic base such as sodium hydrogen carbonate, sodium carbonate, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, lithium hydroxide, barium hydroxide and magnesium oxide, or an organic base such as tertiary amines exemplified by triethylamine, tributylamine, N-methylmorpholine and pyridine. The reaction is desirably conducted at the pH of the reaction mixture in the range of 7 to 12. The reaction temperature is normally in the neighborhood of -10.degree. to 60.degree. C., and the reaction time varies with the reaction temperature and is normally in the range of 30 minutes to 24 hours.
The 7-deoxy-7-halogenovalidamine derivatives of the formula (5) can be synthesized from compounds of the formula (2) by employing the procedure of converting the primary hydroxyl group into halogenomethyl group as generally used in carbohydrate chemistry [refer to "Deoxy Sugars, Advances in Chemistry", series 74, pp. 159 to 201 (1968), published by American Chemical Society; "Methods in Carbohydrate Chemistry", vol. 6, pp. 179 to 207 (1972); "Advances in Carbohydrate Chemistry and Biochemistry", vol.28, pp. 225 to 306 (1973) and vol.33, pp. 72 to 86 (1976), and others], etc. More specifically, the compounds of the formula (5) can be synthesized as well by the procedure that passes via 7-O-sulfonyl derivatives of the formulas (3) and (4) as shown in FIG. 1. That is to say, such compounds can be obtained by reacting a compound of the formula (2) with a sulfonylating agent of the general formula W--SO.sub.2 --Z (where W--SO.sub.2 -- is an alkylsulfonyl group such as mesyl and ethanesulfonyl, an aralkylsulfonyl group such as benzylsulfonyl, or an arylsulfonyl group such as tosyl, mesythylenesulfonyl, p-bromobenzenesulfonyl and 2-naphthalenesulfonyl; Z is a halogen such as chlorine, bromine and iodine, or an active ester residue such as imidazole group). The reaction is normally carried out in a suitable solvent such as dimethylformamide, pyridine, acetone, dioxane, tetrahydrofuran, chloroform, dichloromethane, benzene and toluene, solely or as mixed solvent, in the presence of an organic base such as pyridine, triethylamine and sodium methylate, or an inorganic base such as sodium hydride. The reaction temperature is preferably -10.degree. to 50.degree. C., and the reaction time varies with the reaction temperature and is normally in the range of 1 to 50 hours. The hydroxyl groups in 2, 3 and 4-positions of the validamine derivatives may be protected with protective groups of R.sup.1 as described above, if necessary.
The conversion into a halogen of the sulfonyloxy group in the compounds of the formula (3) or (4) is conducted for example by dissolving or suspending a compound of the formula (3) or (4) in a suitable solvent such as dimethylformamide, dimethylsulfoxide, hexamethylphosphoramide, acetone, benzene, toluene and acetic anhydride, solely or as mixed solvent, and adding to the resulting solution or suspension salts of hydrohalogenic acid such as halogen hydroiodic acid, hydrobromic acid, hydrochloric acid etc., with alkali or alkaline earth metals such as sodium, potassium, lithium and magnesium, followed by the reaction at about 50.degree. to 150.degree. C. The reaction time varies with the reaction temperature and is in the range of 30 minutes to 36 hours.
As the procedure of producing the exomethylene derivatives (6) from the halogenomethyl derivatives (5), the method known in carbohydrate chemistry such as the procedure of producing 5-enopyranose having exomethylene group from 6-deoxy-6-halogenohexose [e.g., the procedures described in "Deoxy Sugars, Advances in Chemistry" series 74, pp. 120 to 140 (1968), published by American Chemical Society; "Methods in Carbohydrate Chemistry", vol. 2, pp. 415 to 418 (1963) and vol. 8, pp. 201 to 205, pp. 301 to 304 (1980), and others] can be applied.
More specifically, the exomethylene derivatives [II] can be produced by reacting a halogenomethyl derivative (5) with a dehalogenating agent such as silver fluoride, at 10.degree. to 40.degree. C. for a period of time in the range of 1 to 24 hours, in a suitable solvent in the presence of a base such as pyridine.
The compounds (6), wherein R.sup.1 is hydrogen, can be obtained for example by eliminating the hydroxyl protective group of a compound where R.sup.1 is a hydroxyl protective group under such reaction conditions as may allow the elimination without splitting the urethane bond (--NH--C--O--). In cases in which R.sup.1 is an acyl type protective group such as an acetyl group, for example, the objective can be achieved by effecting hydrolysis with use of inorganic bases such as sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, barium hydroxide, ammonia, sodium methylate and sodium ethylate, organic bases such as ethylamine, diethylamine, triethylamine and pyridine, and bases such as basic ion exchange resins exemplified by Amberlite IRA-400 (produced by Rohm & Haas Co.) and Dowex 1.times.8 (produced by Dow Chemical Co.), preferably ammonia. As the reaction solvent, use is made of water, lower alcohols such as methanol, ethanol, propanol and butanol, dioxane, tetrahydrofuran, acetone, dimethylformamide, dimethylsulfoxide, diethyl ether, dichloromethane, chloroform, toluene, etc., solely or as a mixed solvent. The reaction is carried out normally at room temperature, by by cooling to temperatures in the neighborhood of -20.degree. C. or by heating to temperatures in the neighborhood of 50.degree. to 60.degree. C., according to the type of bases used. The reaction time varies with the reaction temperature and is normally in the range of 30 minutes to 5 days.
The starting compound [II] wherein --A--B-- is ##STR10## is obtained by reacting valienamine, for example, with a carbonylating agent of the formula RO--CO--Z wherein R and Z are as defined above.
The reaction between the amino group of valienamine and the above-mentioned carbonylating agent can be carried out in water, or other appropriate solvents such as organic solvents exemplified by acetone, dioxane, tetrahydrofuran, methanol, dimethylformamide, chloroform and dichloromethane etc., solely, or as mixed solvent or mixed solvent thereof with water. This reaction is desirably conducted in the presence of inorganic bases exemplified by sodium hydrogen carbonate, sodium carbonate, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, lithium hydroxide, barium hydroxide and magnesium oxide, and organic bases such as tert-amines exemplified by triethylamine, tributylamine, N-methylmorpholine and pyridine, with the pH of the reaction solution maintained in the range of 7 to 12. The reaction is carried out normally at temperature in the range of -10.degree. to 60.degree. C., while the reaction time is normally 30 minutes to 24 hours.
The compound [I] and valiolamine etc., as obtained by the above procedure can be isolated and purified by the means known per se such as filtration, centrifugation, concentration, concentration under reduced pressure, drying, lyophilization, adsorption, desorption, procedures utilizing the difference in solubility in a variety of solvents (e.g. solvent extraction, precipitation, crystallization, recrystallization, etc.), chromatography (e.g., chromatography employing ion exchange resins, activated carbon, high-porous polymers, Sephadex, Sephadex ion exchange materials, cellulose, ion exchange cellulose, silica gel, alumina, etc.), and others.
Below described are Test example, Reference examples and Examples to illustrate in detail the content of the present invention.
In the following Reference Examples and Examples, the eluate in column chromatography was monitored by thin layer chromatography (TLC) with pre-coated silica gel plate (Kieselgel 60 F.sub.254, Merck, W. Germany). The TLC was developed with n-propyl alcohol-acetic acid-water (4:1:1), and detection was effected by UV irradiation or with iodine vapor, unless otherwise specified.

The inhibitory activities of valiolamine against .alpha.-glucosidase (yeast, type I, produced by Sigma Chemical Co., U.S.A.) as well as maltase and saccharase prepared from porcine intestinal mucosa (prepared in accordance with the procedure as described by B. Borgstrom and A. Dahlqvist in Acta Chem. Scand.; 12, 1997-2006, (1958)), when maltose and sucrose are used as a substrate, are determined by adding to 0.25 ml of a solution of an enzyme prepared by diluting suitably with 0.02 M phosphate buffer (pH 6.8) 0.5 ml of a solution of valiolamine to be tested in the same buffer and 0.25 ml of 0.05 M maltose or 0.05 M sucrose as the substrate in the same buffer allowing the mixture to react at 37.degree.
