The First Radical Method for the Introduction of an Ethynyl Group Using a Silicon Tether and Its Application to the Synthesis of 2‘-Deoxy-2‘-C-ethynylnucleosides1
摘要:
A novel radical method for the stereoselective introduction of an ethynyl group has been developed. When a solution of ethynyldimethylsilyl (EDMS) or [2-(trimethylsilyl)ethynyl]dimethylsilyl (TEDMS) ethers of trans-2-iodoindanol was treated with Et3B followed by tetrabutylammonium fluoride in toluene, atom transfer 5-exo-cyclization and subsequent elimination occurred to give cis-2-ethynylindanol in high yield. The method was shown to be useful in the introduction of an ethynyl group in various five- and six-membered-ring iodohydrins. Furthermore, 2'-deoxy-2'-C-ethynyl-uridine (6) and -cytidine (7), which were designed as novel antimetabolites, were readily synthesized by using this method as the key step. This would be the first example in which a radical reaction was used for introducing an ethynyl group.

conventional deuteration approaches which typically entail deuterated solvents and/or moisture exclusion, an unprecedented deutero-deiodination reaction attainable in aqueous (H2O) solution is presented herein. By utilizing the stability of inorganic deuterated calcium/sodium hypophosphites against wayward H/D isotopicexchange within pH 2.5-11.7, these shelf-stable, nontoxic, cost-effective, and environmentally
