Utilisation de techniques d'amination réductrice pour la synthèse d'amino-sucres de différents types. Communication préliminaire

Synthesis of amino-sugars using reductive amination reactions. Preliminary communication Treatment of aldehydo- or keto-sugars with primary or secondary amines and hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst (Pd/C) gave with good to excellent yields (67–96%) the expected secondary or tertiary amines. Primary amines can be obtained by using benzylamine, a hydrogenolysis taking place during the reaction.
