plausible, ribonucleotide α-cytidine-5′-phosphate, selectively protects the vicinal diol moiety. Vicinal diol acetylation blocks oxazolidinone formation and prevents C2′-epimerization upon irradiation with UV-light. Consequently, acetylation enhances (4-fold) the photoanomerization of α-cytidine-5′-phosphate to produce the natural β-pyrimidine ribonucleotide-5′-phosphates required for RNA synthesis.

Flipping stereochemistry: Inorganic phosphate catalyzes the interconversion of ribose and arabinose aminooxazolines, suggesting that the prebiotic synthesis of enantiopure pyrimidine ribonucleotides might have involved a single stereoinversion at C1′ and a double stereoinversion at C2′.

The mechanism of the base-catalyzed degradation of 1-(beta-D-ribofuranosyl)-1,2-dihydropyrimidin-2-one (zebularine, 1a) and closely related analogues was studied by NMR spectroscopy and GC-MS. Addition of sodium deuteroxide to a solution of 1a in D2O effected a rapid and irreversible reaction characterized by complete degradation of the heterocyclic pyrimidinone ring. H-1 NMR data suggested that 1a was initially converted to the labile aldehyde 10. This was later confirmed by similar degradation of the 5-fluoro analogue 1b to the more stable aldehyde 9. The alkaline degradation of 1a reaches an end point after 4 h at room temperature with one identifiable product being the anomerized alpha-N1-O2 cyclic carbamate 6. Compound 6 was formed by degradation of both 1a and 1b. The ara epimer 1c formed the beta-carbamate 8, and the 5'-O-methyl derivative 1d proceeded to the 5-O-methyl carbamate 7. An inventory of the remaining atoms yields a formula which suggested the complementary component of the degradation to be an immediate precursor to 1,3-propane dialdehyde (malondialdehyde, MDA). Support for this proposal was evident in both the H-1 and C-13 NMR spectra of the basic reaction mixture which showed resonances that corresponded closely with those published for authentic MDA at pH 9.6. The presence of MDA was unequivocally proven by derivatization of the acidified degradation mixture with hydrazinobenzothiazole (HBT) to give the known adduct 11. GC-MS analysis of the adduct obtained from HBT and the MDA formed during the decomposition reaction was identical to the adduct prepared from authentic MDA and HBT. Since the 5'-O-methyl derivative 1d yielded the same type of products as those analogues with the 5'-hydroxyl free, it was concluded that the 5'-OH was not essential for alkaline lability. This contradicts the original literature assumption that some type of cyclization of the carbohydrate with the pyrimidinone system may be a first step in the mechanism. The data herein suggest that the base-catalyzed decomposition begins with the preferential attack at the 6-position of 2-pyrimidinone nucleosides. The discovery that a known mutagen (MDA) is a product in the degradation of 1a suggests that a relationship could exist between the chemical susceptibility of 1a and its unique biological activity.
