Cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) has been converted into its 8-bromo derivative and 2â²O-TBDMS protected before activation of the phosphoric acid moiety with a reagent generated in situ from oxalyl chloride and DMF. Further reactions with primary amines furnished corresponding phosphoramidates with high stereoselectivity at the phosphorus atom. Cross-coupling reactions with the 8-bromopurine yielded 8-hetaryl derivatives. X-Ray analyses showed the amidates to possess the (SP)-configuration. Carbon disulfide effected thiylation under strongly basic conditions stereospecifically provided the (RP)-phosphorothioic acids.
