A series of 5'-N-methanesulfonyl derivatives of 3'-azido-5'-(alkylamino)-3',5'-dideoxythymidine was synthesised. The first step of the synthesis involved the reaction of 1-(2,5-dideoxy-5-O-tosyl-beta-D-threo-pentofuranosyl)thymine 1 with an appropriate amine to give 1-[5-(alkylamino)-2,5-dideoxy-beta-D-threo-pentofuranosyl]thymine 2a-e and 1-(2,5-dideoxy-beta-threo-pent-4-enofuranosyl)thymine 3 as a by-product. Compounds 2a-e were treated with an excess of methanesulfonyl chloride to yield intermediates 1-[5-(dimethylamino)-3-O-methanesulfonyl-2,3,5-trideoxy-beta-D-threo-pentofuranosyl]thymine 4a and 1-[5-(N-alkyl-N-methanesulfonyl)-3-O-methanesulfonyl-2,3,5-trideoxy-beta-D-threo-penfuranosyl]thymines 4b-e. The reaction of 4a-e with lithium azide in dimethylformamide afforded the final compounds 1-[3-azido-5-(N-methyl-N-methanesulfonyl)-2,3,5-trideoxy-beta-D-erythro-penofuranosyl]thymine 5a and 1-[3-azido-5-(N-alkyl-N-methanesulfonyl)-2,3,5-trideoxy-beta-D-erythro-penofuranosyl]thymines 5b-e. The independent synthesis of 4',5'-unsaturated product 3 was also described.
