First, the anwer is “Would glucose and ammonia work?” is: no, definitely not. The OH group is a poor leaving group, and alcohol + ammonia definitely won't yield an amine. Moreover, in your case, you have many hydroxyl groups and you only want one transformed into an amine, which is tricky.

I don't know how the synthesis of the above compound can be achieved, but I know one way to help you start a literature search: your expected compound is called an amino sugar. In this particular case, it's the 6-amino-D-glucose.
