Synthesis and structure-activity relationship of ribofuranosyl echiguanine analogs as inhibitors of phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase

Studies on the glycosylation of pyrrolo[2,3-d] pyrimidines with 1-O-acetyl-2,3,5-tri-O-benzoyl-beta-D-ribofuranose: the formation of regioisomers during toyocamycin and 7-deazainosine syntheses

Glycosylation of silylated 4-amino-6-bromo-5-cyano-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine (9) with 1-O-acetyl-2,3,5-tri-O-benzoyl-beta-D-ribofuranose (10) under "one-pot" glycosylation conditions (MeCN, TMSOTf) yielded the N-7 isomer 11 together with the N-1 compound 13 (ratio = 2:1). When the same conditions were applied to 4-hydroxy-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine (21) the N-3 isomer 22 was the only glycosylation product formed in almost quantitative yield.

7-deazainosine derivatives: synthesis and characterization of 7- and 7,8-substituted pyrrolo [2,3-d]pyrimidine ribonucleosides

The synthesis of model 7 deazapurine derivatives related to tubercidin and toyocamycin has been performed. Tubercidin derivatives were obtained by simple conversion of the amino group of the heterocyclic moiety of the starting 7-deazadenosine compounds, into a hydroxyl group. Preparation of toyocamycin derivatives was accomplished by treatment of the silylated 6-bromo-5-cyanopyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-one with 1-O-acetyl-2,3,5-tri-O-benzoyl-beta-d-ribofuranose. The glycosylation reaction afforded a mixture of 8-bromo 7-cyano 2',3',5' tri-O-benzoyl 7-deazainosine and 6-bromo-5-cyano-3-(2',3',5'-tri-O-benzoyl-beta-d-ribofuranosyl)pyrrolo[2,3-d]-pyrimidin-4-one isomers: The structures were assigned on the basis of NMR spectroscopy studies. Next deprotection treatment gave the novel 7-deazainosine ribonucleosides.

7-Functionalized 7-deazapurine ribonucleosides related to 2-aminoadenosine, guanosine, and xanthosine: glycosylation of pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidines with 1-O-acetyl-2,3,5-tri-O-benzoyl-D-ribofuranose

[reaction: see text] The Silyl-Hilbert-Johnson reaction as well as the nucleobase-anion glycosylation of a series of 7-deazapurines has been investigated, and the 7-functionalized 7-deazapurine ribonucleosides were prepared. Glycosylation of the 7-halogenated 6-chloro-2-pivaloylamino-7-deazapurines 9b-d with 1-O-acetyl-2,3,5-tri-O-benzoyl-D-ribofuranose (5) gave the beta-D-nucleosides 11b-d (73-75% yield), which were transformed to a number of novel 7-halogenated 7-deazapurine ribonucleosides (2b-d, 3b-d, and 4b-d) related to guanosine, 2-aminoadenosine, and xanthosine. 7-Alkynyl derivatives (2e-i, 3e-h, or 4g) have been prepared from the corresponding 7-iodonucleosides 2d, 3d, or 4d employing the palladium-catalyzed Sonogashira cross-coupling reaction. The 7-halogenated 2-amino-7-deazapurine ribonucleosides with a reactive 6-chloro substituent (18b-d) were synthesized in an alternative way using nucleobase-anion glycosylation performed on the 7-halogenated 2-amino-6-chloro-7-deazapurines 13b-d with 5-O-[(1,1-dimethylethyl)dimethylsilyl]-2,3-O-(1-methylethylidene)-alpha-D-ribofuranosyl chloride (17). Compounds 18b-d have been converted to the nucleosides 19b-d carrying reactive substituents in the pyrimidine moiety. Conformational analysis of selected nucleosides on the basis of proton coupling constants and using the program PSEUROT showed that these ribonucleosides exist in a preferred S conformation in solution.
