Treatment of purine, pyrimidine, and modified purine (antibiotic) ribonucleosides with 2-acetoxy-2-methylpropanoyl (α-acetoxyisobutyryl) bromide in acetonitrile gave mixtures of 2',3'-bromohydrin acetates with different O5' substituents.Significant amounts of 5'-unprotected (hydroxyl) bromo acetates were obtained in some cases, and formation of 2',3'-O-isopropylidene derivatives as minor byproducts was detected for the first time.Acid-catalyzed nucleophilic displacement of chloride by bromide occurred with 2-amino-6-chloropurine riboside, but no substitution of fluoride by bromide was detected with 6-amino- 2-fluoropurine riboside.Treatment of the trans bromo acetate mixtures obtained from purine-type nucleosides with Dowex 1 x 2 (OH(-)) in methanol gave the 2',3'-anhydro (ribo epoxide) compounds.Radical-mediated hydrogenolytic debromination and deprotection gave 2'- and 3'-deoxynucleosides.Treatment of the bromo acetate mixtures with zinc-copper couple or acetic acid-activated zinc effected reductive elimination, and deprotection gave 2',3'-didehydro-2',3'-dideoxy compounds which were hydrogenated to give 2',3'-dideoxynucleosides.A number of these analogues have potent inhibitory activity against AIDS and hepatitis B viruses.New 13C NMR data for several types of unsaturated-sugar nucleosides are tabulated.These procedures are directly applicable for the preparation of L-didehydro-dideoxy and L-dideoxy nucleoside analogues.
