[Structure: see text] A novel method for synthesizing isonucleosides, a new class of anti-HIV nucleosides, is described. 2,2-Dimethyl-1,3-dioxan-5-one was converted into a dioxabicyclohexane derivative in six steps. After cleaving the epoxide group with thiophenol, the resulting product was subjected to the Mitsunobu reaction in the presence of a nucleobase to give the desired isonucleoside derivative via migration of the thiophenyl group. Removal of the thiophenyl group under radical conditions followed by deprotection led to the 4'-substituted 2',3'-dideoxyisonucleosides as a racemic mixture.
An efficient entry to nucleoside 3'-H-phosphonoselenoate monoesters via phosphinate intermediates was developed. It involves a reaction of suitably protected nucleosides with triethylammonium phosphinate in the presence of pivaloyl chloride, followed by selenization of the intermediate nucleoside phosphinates with triphenylphosphine selenide, to produce the corresponding nucleoside H-phosphonoselenoates in 86-92% yields.
Reaction of L-tartaric acid with thiocarbohydcrazide afforded (1R, 2S)-1,2-bis(4-amino-5-mercapto-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)-ethane-1,2-diol (3). The functional groups in 3 allowed the construction of fused heterocycles on the 1,2,4-triazole rings, mainly of the 1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazine type as in 4, 5, 7, 10, 13 and 1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazole type as in 14.
