Stability and Selectivity of Unnatural DNA with Five-Membered-Ring Nucleobase Analogues
摘要:
In an effort to develop an orthogonal third base pair for the storage of genetic information, thiophene and furan heterocycles have been examined as nucleobase analogues. The stability of the unnatural bases was evaluated in duplex DNA paired opposite other unnatural bases as well as opposite the natural bases. Several unnatural base pairs are identified that are both reasonably stable and strongly selective against mispairing with native bases. These results expand the potential nucleobase analogues with which the genetic alphabet may be expanded to include five-membered-ring heterocycles.

A new modular methodology of preparation of 5-substituted thiophene-2-yl C-nucleosides was developed. A Friedel−Crafts-type of C-glycosidation of 2-bromothiophene with toluoyl-protected methylglycoside 2 gave the desired protected 1β-(5-bromothiophen-2-yl)-1,2-dideoxyribofuranose 4a in 60%. The key intermediate 4a was then subjected to a series of palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions. The cross-coupling

Seven C-2-deoxy-D- ribonucleosides bearing typical aromatic heterocycles as base moiety are synthesized in good yields by the stereoselective addition of lithium salts of aromatic heterocycles to the silyl-protected 2-deoxy-D-ribose followed by cyclization and deprotection.
