Abstract: | The syntheses of 3-amino-4-methyl-1-(β-D-ribofuranosyl)-1,2,4-triazolin-5-one ( 8a ) and its 2′-deoxy analog 8b as well as 5-amino-2-methyl-1-(β-D-ribofuranosyl)-1,2,4-triazolin-3-one ( 12 ) have been accomplished. Compounds 8a and 8b were synthesized via glycosylation of 3-bromo-5-nitro-1,2,4-triazole which was followed by replacement in three steps of the 3-bromo function to yield 3-nitro-1-(2,3,5-tri-O-acetyl-β-D-ribofuranosyl)-1,2,4-triazolin-5-one ( 4a ) and its 2′-deoxy analog 4b . Compounds 4a and 4b were methylated at N2, hydrogenated and deblocked to give 3-amino-4-methyl-1-(β-D-ribofuranosyl)-1,2,4-triazolin-5-one ( 8a ) and the 2′-deoxy analog 8b . Compound 12 was synthesized by glycosylation of 3-amino-1-methyl-1,2,4-triazolin-5(2H)-one ( 10 ). The structures of 8b and 12 were confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. |
