Abstract:

Four D-altritol nucleosides with a 3'-O-tert-butyldimethylsilyl protecting group are synthesized (base moieties are adenine, guanine, thymine and 5-methylcytosine). The nucleosides are obtained by ring opening reaction of 1,5:2,3-dianhydro-4,6-O-benzylidene-D-allitol. Optimal reaction circumstances (NaH, LiH, DBU, phase transfer, microwave irridation) for the introduction of the heterocycles are base-specific. For the introduction of the 3'-O-silyl protecting group, long reaction times and several equivalents of tert-butyldimethylsilyl chloride are needed.
