Abstract: | A synthesis of the isosteric mono-phosphonate analogues 2a and 19 of the β-and α-D -fructose 2,6-bisphosphate, respectively, is described. Chain elongation of the 1-deoxy-1-nitro-D -arabinose 3 (Scheme 1) by a Henry reaction with paraformaldehyde followed by protection of the resulting alcohol (methoxymethyl ether) and a radical-chain substitution by nitromethane anion gave the key intermediates, the gluco-anhydroalditol 6 and the manno-anhydroalditol 7 . These products equilibrated under basic conditions. Conversion of 7 to the aldehyde 9 , Abramov reaction of 9 with diphenyl phosphite followed by deoxygenation according to Barton gave the phosphonate 11 (Scheme 2). Selective hydrogenolysis of 11 , phosphorylation and deprotection gave 2 which was converted to the tetrasodium salt 2a . Similarly, 6 was transformed into the isosteric phosphonate analogue 19 of the α-D -fructose 2,6-bisphosphate (Scheme 3). |
