The invention is a process for producing N-substituted glucamines, a process for oxidizing an N-substituted glucamine with an oxidizing microbe or extract thereof, and a process for oxidizing an N-substituted glucamine with an oxidizing microbe or extract thereof and reducing the oxidized N-substituted glucamine to an N-substituted-1-deoxynojirimycin. In addition, a one pot process for producing N-substituted-1-deoxynojirimycin from -glucose is disclosed.

Salt forms of 6-n-butylamino-6-deoxy-&agr;-L-sorbofuranose

A method for preparing a chiral beta amino acid or its corresponding esters which comprises contacting a racemic beta amino acid, an acyl donor and Penicillin G acylase enzyme under conditions appropriate to stereoselectively acylate one enantiomer of the racemic beta amino acid to its corresponding N-acylated derivative whereby the opposite enantiomer of the beta amino acid is retained in enantiomerically enriched form.

Method and apparatus for preparation of chiral beta amino acids using penicilln G acylase

The invention is a process for producing N-substituted glucamines, a process for oxidizing an N-substituted glucamine with an oxidizing microbe or extract thereof, and a process for oxidizing an N-substituted glucamine with an oxidizing microbe or extract thereof and reducing the oxidized N-substituted glucamine to an N-substituted-1-deoxynojirimycin. In addition, a one pot process for producing N-substituted-1-deoxynojirimycin from D-glucose is disclosed.

Process for microbially oxidizing N-substituted glucamines

A process for producing N-substituted amino compounds, a process for oxidizing an N-substituted amino compound with a microbe, or cell fragment or cell free extract thereof, and a process for oxidizing an N-substituted amino compound with a microbe, or cell fragment or cell free extract thereof and reducing the oxidized N-substituted amino compound to N-substituted-polyhydroxy piperidines based on N-substituted mannosamines, allosamines and altrosamines, N-substituted polyhydroxy pyrrolidines, and N-substituted polyhydroxy azetidines. In addition, a one pot process for producing N-substituted-polyhydroxy piperidines based on N-substituted mannosamines, allosamines and altrosamines, N-substituted polyhydroxy pyrrolidines, and N-substituted polyhydroxy azetidines from the respective sugar is disclosed. A second embodiment comprises novel compositions of N-substituted-amino-6-deoxy-2-ketohexuloses based on mannose, allose and altrose, N-substituted-amino-5-deoxy-2-ketopentuloses and 4-(N-substituted)-amino-1,3-dihydroxy-2-butanones.
