2,3-Didehydro-3-deoxythymidine has been obtained with an overall yield of 10% by the condensation of 1,2-di-O-acetyl-3,5-di-O-benzoyl-D-xylofuranose with bis-(dimethylsilyl)thymine and a series of subsequent transformations. The anti-HIV activity of the compound obtained was studied on the model of MT-4 lymphoid cells primarily infected with HIV-1. It was found that the substance effectively inhibits the reproduction of HIV-1 in a cell culture.Institute of Organic Chemistry, Ural Branch, Russian Academy of Sciences, Ufa.

Synthesis of 3′-deoxy-3′-iminodiacetic acid and 3′-deoxy-3′-aminodiethanol thymidine analogues and NMR study of their complexation with boronic acids

The iminodiacetic acid and aminodiethanol moieties are known for their ability to generate with boronic acids bicyclic structures having a strong intramolecular NB coordination. We describe here the convergent synthesis of 3′-deoxy-3′-iminodiacetic acid and 3′-deoxy-3′-aminodiethanol thymidine analogues. The abilities of these compounds to form boronate complexes with aliphatic or aromatic boronic acids were established by 1D and 2D ¹H and ¹³C NMR. Moreover, conformational analysis of the newly synthesized compounds revealed a marked preference for an N-type sugar puckering.

A Click-Chemistry Linked 2′3′-cGAMP Analogue

2′3′-cGAMP is an uncanonical cyclic dinucleotide where one A and one G base are connected via a 3′-5′ and a unique 2′-5′ linkage. The molecule is produced by the cyclase cGAS in response to cytosolic DNA binding. cGAMP activates STING and hence one of the most powerful pathways of innate immunity. cGAMP analogues with uncharged linkages that feature better cellular penetrability are currently highly desired. Here, the synthesis of a cGAMP analogue with one amide and one triazole linkage is reported. The molecule is best prepared via a first Cu^I-catalyzed click reaction, which establishes the triazole, while the cyclization is achieved by macrolactamization.     

2′-Fluoro-3-deazaaristeromycin

The carbocyclic nucleoside 3-deazaaristeromycin has shown biological promise but a library of its derivatives upon which to expand this property is lacking. To address this situation, the synthesis of the two diastereomers of 2′-fluoro-3-deazaaristeromycin is described in a multistep convergent process that calls upon d-ribose for construction of the cyclopentyl fluoro units.

Theoretical investigation on the structural and electronic properties of complexes formed by thymine and 2′-deoxythymidine with different anions

Hydrogen bonding interactions between thymine nucleobase and 2′-deoxythymidine nucleoside (dT) with some biological anions such as F⁻ (fluoride), Cl⁻ (chloride), OH⁻ (hydroxide), and NO₃ ⁻ (nitrate) have been explored theoretically. In this study, complexes have been studied by density functional theory (B3LYP method and 6-311++G (d,p) basis set). The relevant geometries, energies, and characteristics of hydrogen bonds (H-bonds) have been systematically investigated. There is a correlation between interaction energy and proton affinity for complexes of thymine nucleobase. The nature of all the interactions has been analyzed by means of the natural bonding orbital (NBO) and quantum theory atoms in molecules (QTAIM) approaches. Donors, acceptors, and orbital interaction energies were also calculated for the hydrogen bonds. Excellent correlations between structural parameter (δR) and electron density topological parameter (ρ _b) as well as between E(2) and ρ _b have been found. It is interesting that hydrogen bonds with anions can affect the geometry of thymine and 2′-deoxythymidine molecules. For example, these interactions can change the bond lengths in thymine nucleobase, the orientation of base unit with respect to sugar ring, the furanose ring puckering, and the C1′–N1 glycosidic linkage in dT nucleoside. Thus, it is necessary to obtain a fundamental understanding of chemical behavior of nucleobases and nucleosides in presence of anions.     

From 3′-Keto-Isomaltulose to Polymers

Abstract

A new method was developed to prepare polymers with a saccharide in the main chain without blocking and deblocking procedures. The microbial oxidation product of isomaltulose, 3′-keto-isomaltulose, was converted to a diamine by reductive amination. The resulting diamine was employed as a difunctional monomer for direct polyaddition with diisocyanates. The polyureas formed were characterized by IR, ¹³C NMR, light scattering, and viscosity measurements.     

Synthesis of 2′,3′-Dideoxy-2′-Fluorokanamycin A

2′,3′-Dideoxy-2′-fluorokanamycin A (23) was prepared by condensation of 6-azido-4-0-benzoyl-2,3,6-trideoxy-2-fluoro-α-D-ribo-hexopyranosyl bromide (13) and a protected disaccharide (19). Methyl 4,6-0-benzylidene-3-deoxy-β-D-arabino-hexopyranoside (5) prepared from methyl 4,6-0-benzylidene-3-chloro-3-deoxy-β-D-allo-hexopyranoside (1) by oxidation with pyridinium chlorochromate followed by reduction with Na₂ S₂O₄ was fluorinated with the DAST reagent to give methyl 4,6-O-benzylidene-2,3-dideoxy-2-fluoro-β-D-ribo-hexopyranoside (7). Successive treatment of 7 with NBS, NaN₃ and SOBr₂ gave 13. The structure of the final product (23) was determined by the ¹H and ¹⁹F and shift-correlated 2D NMR spectra.
