Stereoselective glycosylation of sodium salts of halopurines and analogues with 2-deoxy-3,5-di-O-p-toluoyl-α-D-erythro-pentofuranosyl chloride gave β-nucleoside anomers via predominant Walden inversion,17,18 and ammonolysis/deprotection gave CldAdo.19 Although the sodium salt glycosylation usually gave good anomeric stereoselectivity, minor quantities of a anomers and >10% of N7 regioisomers were usually formed.20,21 This requires separations and results in diminished yields of the desired N9 product. Carson et al.1 had reported an enzymatic transfer of the 2-deoxy sugar from thymidine to 2-chloroadenine (ClAde). Holy and coworkers noted that cells of a strain of Escherichia coli performed glycosyl transfer from 2′-deoxyuridine to 2-chloro-6-[(dimethylaminomethylene)amino]purine to give a derivative of CldAdo.22 Very recently Barai, Mikhailopulo, and coworkers23 described an E. coli-mediated glycosyl transfer synthesis of 2,6-diamino-9-(3-deoxy-β-D-erythro-pentofuranosyl)purine,24 and its enzymatic deamination to 3′-deoxyguanosine.24 They reported glycosyl transfer from 2′-deoxyguanosine to ClAde, and claimed a yield of 81% of CldAdo (based on ClAde).23 However, a 3:1 ratio of dGuo/ClAde was employed, so the yield of CldAdo was <27% based on dGuo.
