Herein, we report a 1,6-epi-cyclophellitol cyclosulfamidate as a new class of reversible α-glucosidase inhibitors that displays enzyme inhibitory activity by virtue of its conformational mimicry of the substrate when bound in the Michaelis complex. The α-d-glc-configured cyclophellitol cyclosulfamidate 4 binds in a competitive manner the human lysosomal acid α-glucosidase (GAA), ER α-glucosidases, and, at higher concentrations, intestinal α-glucosidases, displaying an excellent selectivity over the human β-glucosidases GBA and GBA2 and glucosylceramide synthase (GCS). Cyclosulfamidate 4 stabilizes recombinant human GAA (rhGAA, alglucosidase alfa, Myozyme) in cell medium and plasma and facilitates enzyme trafficking to lysosomes. It stabilizes rhGAA more effectively than existing small-molecule chaperones and does so in vitro, in cellulo, and in vivo in zebrafish, thus representing a promising therapeutic alternative to Miglustat for Pompe disease.23:T417,Aziridines are important structural motifs and intermediates, and several synthetic strategies for the direct aziridination of alkenes have been introduced. However, many of these strategies require an excess of activated alkene, suffer from competing side-reactions, have limited functional group tolerance, or involve precious transition metal-based catalysts. Herein, we demonstrate the direct aziridination of alkenes by combining sulfonyl azides as a triplet nitrene source with a catalytic amount of an organic dye functioning as photosensitizer. We show how the nature of the sulfonyl azide, in combination with the triplet-excited state energy of the photosensitizer, affects the aziridination yield and provide a mechanistic rationale to account for the observed dependence of the reaction yield on the nature of the organic dye and sulfonyl azide reagents. The optimized reaction conditions enable the aziridination of structurally diverse and complex alkenes, carrying various functional groups, with the alkene as the limiting reagent.
