Tautomerism and regioselectivity in ribosylation of guanine
Boryski,Manikowski
, p. 287 - 290 (1995)
N2-acetyl- and 9,N2-diacetylguanines were subjected to reaction with tetraacetylribose in the presence of p-toluenesulfonic acid. Unlike the ribosylation of diacetylguanine, which gives 7-riboside as a kinetic product, the reaction of monoacetylguanine produces directly a mixture of 7- and 9-ribosides. This reflects N7H right arrow-left arrow N9H tautomerism of the guanine substrate and supports the hypothesis that only the unsubstituted nitrogens of the imidazolium portion of guanine (either N7 or N9) react directly with a sugar cation.

Per(trimethylsilyl)-2-N-acylguanine derivatives and tetra-O-acylpentofuranoses were coupled [tin(IV) chloride or titanium(IV) chloride catalysis] to give predominant formation of 7-glycosylguanines. With TiCl4, a fortuitous organic/aqueous partitioning allowed isolation of 7-glycosylguanines from the 7/9 isomer mixtures. Per(trimethylsilyl)-2-N-acyl-6-O-(diphenylcarbamoyl)guanine derivatives and tetra-O-acylpentofuranoses underwent regioselective coupling (trimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate catalysis) to give 9-glycosylguanines. The 6-O-(diphenylcarbamoyl)peracyl-9-β-D-ribofuranosyl isomer was shown to be both the xinetic and thermodynamic coupling product. Deprotection of all of the peracyl coupling products was effected under mild conditions to give good to high yields of guanine nucleoside analogues. These methodologies provide solutions for the regioselective synthesis of 7- and 9-glycosylguanine nucleosides.
