Nucleic Acid Related Compounds. 127. Selective N-Deacylation of N,O-Peracylated Nucleosides in Superheated Methanol1
摘要:
Solutions of peracylated adenosine, cytidine, and related nucleoside derivatives undergo selective N-deacylation upon heating at elevated temperatures (oil bath >= 105 degrees C) in methanol. An increase in the bulk of the N-acyl group has little effect on the rate of N-deacylation but increases the N/O selectivity ratio. Extended heating is required for N-deacylation with arylcarboxylic acid derivatives. Contamination with acidic or basic reagent residues is avoided.
Hydrothermal Deamidation of 4-N-Acylcytosine Nucleoside Derivatives: Efficient Synthesis of Uracil Nucleoside Esters
摘要:
[GRAPHICS]N,O-Peracylated cytidine and 2'-deoxycytidine derivatives in superheated water/DME solutions (oil bath at 125 degrees C) undergo hydrolytic deamidation (and/or N-deacylation). Acylated starting materials derived from arylcarboxylic acids give the corresponding uridine esters cleanly, and such derivatives crystallize selectively from the cooled reaction mixtures in high yields.
