Abstract: | A solvent-free reaction employing a simple low-energy ball mill apparatus converts the amino groups of adenosine, 2-deoxyadenosine, cytidine, 2-deoxycytidine, guanosine, and 2-deoxyguanosine as well as some of their ribosyl O-protected derivatives to the corresponding bis-N-Boc carbamates. In the case of guanosine compounds, the carbonyl group of the base moiety was also blocked as its O-Boc enol carbonate. A variation of this approach using transient in situ O-silylation permitted the preparation of bis-N-Boc nucleosides in which the sugar hydroxyls were unprotected. The ball mill reactions were rapid, convenient, and very high-yielding except in the case of the guanosine compounds. This highly efficient method protects the amino groups of these nucleosides with a base stable and acid labile group suitable for further synthetic manipulation. |
