Trimethylsilyl triflate → Methyl 9-{(2R,3R,4R,5R)-3,4-bis(acetyloxy)-5-[(acetyloxy)methyl]tetrahydro-2-furanyl}-6-[(2,2-diphenylethyl)amino]-9H-purine-2-carboxylate

Reaktionsschritte

A suspension of methyl 6-[(2,2-diphenylethyl)amino]-9H-purine-2-carboxylate (Preparation 7) (1.5 g, 4.02 mmol) in 1,1,1-trichloroethane (40 ml) was treated with N,O-bis(trimethylsilyl)acetamide (4.8 ml, 19.6 mmol). The mixture was heated under reflux for two hours. The solution was allowed to cool to room temperature and the solvent removed under reduced pressure. The residue was taken up in anhydrous toluene (40 ml) and 1,2,3,5-tetra-O-acetyl-β-D-ribofuranose (1.65 g, 5.19 mmol) and trimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate (0.98 ml, 5.43 mmol) added. The resulting solution was heated under reflux under a nitrogen atmosphere for 3 hours. The mixture was cooled to room temperature, diluted with ethyl acetate (200 ml) and washed with a saturated aqueous solution of sodium hydrogen carbonate. The organic layer was separated, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulphate, filtered and the solvent removed under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel using gradient elution with ethyl acetate:pentane (70:30, by volume) then ethyl acetate:pentane (80:20, by volume) then ethyl acetate to afford the title compound as a foam (2.05 g).
