[EN] NUCLEOSIDE DERIVATIVES FOR TREATING HEPATITIS C VIRUS INFECTION [FR] DERIVES NUCLEOSIDIQUES DESTINES AU TRAITEMENT DE L'INFECTION PAR LE VIRUS DE L'HEPATITE C
A series of 9-(2'-beta-C-methyl-p-D-ribofuranosyl)-6-substituted purine derivatives were synthesized as potential inhibitors of HCV RNA replication. Their inhibitory activities in a cell based HCV replicon assay were reported. A prodrug approach was used to further improve the potency of these compounds by increasing the intracellular levels of 5'-monophosphate metabolites. These nucleotide prodrugs showed much improved inhibitory activities of HCV RNA replication. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

A five-step synthesis of 2'-C-branched ribonucleosides from commercially obtained 1,3,5-tri-0-benzoyl-alpha-D-ribofuranose (4) is described. The free hydroxyl group of 4 was oxidized in high yield with Dess-Martin periodane reagent. The resultant 2-ketosugar was treated with MeMgBr/TiCl4, CH2=CHMgBr/CeCl3, or TMSC drop CLi/CeCl3, and in each case addition to the ketone proceeded stereoselectively to provide 2-alkylated ribofuranosides. After conversion to the corresponding tetrabenzoyl derivatives, the 2-alkylribofuranosides were coupled to nucleobases under Vorbruggen persilylation conditions, giving the beta-nucleosides with high stereoselectivity. Deprotection with methanolic ammonia provided the title compounds in 17-49% overall yields from 4.

Certain 2'-C-alkylribonucleotides have been designed as potential mechanism-based inactivators of ribonucleotide reductases. A short, flexible route toward the corresponding nucleosides and NMR evidence concerning their preferred solution conformations are discussed.
