Thionation using fluorous Lawesson's reagent.

[reaction: see text] Thionation of amides, 1,4-diketones, N-(2-oxoalkyl)amides, N,N'-acylhydrazines, and acyl-protected uridines with the use of a fluorous analogue of the Lawesson's reagent leads to thioamides, thiophenes, 1,3-thiazoles, 1,3,4-thiadiazoles, and acyl-protected 4-thiouridines. The isolation of the final products in high yields is achieved in most cases by a simple filtration (fluorous solid-phase extraction).

NMR conformational analysis of p-tolyl furanopyrimidine 2'-deoxyribonucleoside and crystal structure of its 3',5'-di-O-acetyl derivative.

The conformation of a representative molecule of a new, potent class of antiviral-active modified nucleosides is determined. A bicyclic nucleoside, 3-(2'-deoxy-beta-D-ribofuranosyl)-6-(4-methylphenyl)-2,3-dihydrofuro[2,3-d]pyrimidin-2-one, shows C2'-endo and C3'-endo ribose conformations in solution (63:37, 37 degrees C; DMSO-d6), as determined by 1H NMR studies. The crystal structure of a 3',5'-di-O-acetyl-protected derivative (monoclinic, P21, a/b/c= 6.666(1)/12.225(1)/24.676(2) A, beta=90.24(1) degrees , Z=4) shows exclusively C2'-endo deoxyribose puckering. The base is found in the anti position both in solution and in crystalline form.

Fluorous, chromatography-free Mitsunobu reaction.

[formula: see text] The reaction of secondary and primary alcohols with highly fluorinated 3,4,5-tris(5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8,9,9,10,10,11,11,12,12,12-heptadecafluorododecan- 1-yloxy)benzoic acid in the presence of Ph3P and DIAD in THF at room temperature (fluorous Mitsunobu) resulted in a simple, chromatography-free isolation protocol with excellent yields (83-96%).
