The synthesis of 1-thiaHydantocidin, a close analog of the total herbicide Hydantocidin, is described starting from 2,3,5-tri-O-benzoyl-beta-D-ribofuranosyl cyanide.
Synthesis and structure determination of the first 1′-C-cyano-β-D-nucleosides
摘要:
The 1'-cyano -2',3'-D-unsaturated nucleoside 8 was synthesised according to the following steps. Photobromination of the ribofuranosyl cyanide 1 using N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) as a radical source gave the two isomers of the new C-1 gem disubstituted sugar 2. Its condensation with silylated thymine afforded the blocked nucleoside 3, the stereochemistry and molecular shape of which were deduced from NMR studies and molecular simulation. After deprotection of 3 into 4, thiocarbonylation of the silylated derivative 5, followed by olefination of 6, led to 7 which was deblocked to the 1'-cyano substituted d4T 8.
