Reaktionsschritte

The preparation of CYC682 described in EP 536936 (see Scheme 1 below) involves reacting cytidine [1] with palmitic anhydride in DMF to form N4-palmitoylcytidine [2] and subsequently protecting with 1,3-dichloro-1,1,4,4-tetraisopropyldisiloxane (CIPS) to form intermediate [3]. Oxidation of [3] with pyridinium dichromate/acetic anhydride in dichloromethane produces intermediate ketone [4], which is then reacted with sodium cyanide and sodium dihydrogen phosphate dihydrate in ethyl acetate to form the cyanohydrin [5]. Intermediate [5] is then reacted with N,N-dimethylaminopyridine, phenoxythiocarbonyl chloride and triethylamine to form intermediate [6], which is subsequently reacted with AIBN and tributyltin hydride in toluene to give intermediate [7]. Deprotection of [7] with acetic acid and tetrabutylammonium fluoride in THF yields the desired product, CYC682.
