Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2-amino-9-(β-L-ribofiiranosyl)purine-6-sulfenamide 17 (200 mg, 0.637 mmol), ethanol (90 mL) and water (6.4 mL) was vigorously stirred at −10° C. in a salt-ice bath. A solution of MCPBA (80%, 137.0 mg, 0.637 mmol) in ethanol 5.5 mL was added dropwise over a period of 15 minutes. The mixture was allowed to stir and warm as the ice melt (8 h), and stirred at ambient temperature for addition 14 h. A small amount of precipitate was filtered out and the filtrate evaporated at 23° C. to dryness. The residue was triturated with ethyl ether (30 mL) and the solid was collected by filtration, washed with ethyl ether (10 mL). The solid was again suspended in ethyl ether (25 mL), filtered, and dried to give 182 mg (87%) of 2-amino-9-(β-L-ribofuranosyl)purine-6-sulfinamide 18 as a colorless solid.
