Stereoselective synthesis of 4′-C-branched 2,′3′-didehydro-2′-dideoxy nucleosides based on SnCl4-promoted allylic rearrangement
摘要:
Based on SnCl4-promoted allylic rearrangement between a 3',4'-unsaturated uracil nucleoside and organosilicon reagents, stereoselective introduction of carbon functionalities to the 4'-position has been accomplished, disclosing a new entry for a series of 4'-C-branched nucleosides of biological interests.
Selenoxide elimination for the synthesis of unsaturated-sugar uracil nucleosides
摘要:
Introduction of a phenylseleno group to the sugar portion of uracil nucleosides and selenoxide elimination reactions of the resulting selenium-containing derivatives are described. A phenylselenide anion prepared by reducing (PhSe)2 with LialH4 was found to be highly reactive. By using this selenide as a nucleophile, ring openings of various types of cyclonucleosides and nucleosides having an anhydro structure in the sugar portion were accomplished. The products, which contain a phenylseleno group in the sugar portion, were oxidized with m-CPBA in CH2Cl2, and their susceptibility to the selenoxide elimination and regiochemistry of the reaction was investigated.
