Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1.89 g (10.0 mmol) of 2,6-dichloropurine in 100 ml of tetrahydrofuran was added 2.62 g (10.0 mmol) of triphenylphosphine and 1.74 g (10.0 mmol) of diethyl azodicarboxylate. To this mixture was added a solution of 3.98 g (10.0 mmol) of 3,5-bis(t-butyldimethylsiloxy)-1-hydroxy-2-desoxy-2,2-difluororibose in 25 ml of tetrahydrofuran and the mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. The precipitated solid was removed by vacuum filtration and the filtrate was concentrated under vacuum. The residue was dissolved in 100 ml of diethyl ether and the solution was stirred at room temperature overnight. The mixture was filtered and the filtrate was evaporated to dryness under vacuum. The residue was dissolved in 25 ml of ethyl acetate, and the mixture was set in the refrigerator. The mixture was filtered and the filtrate was chromatographed by HPLC while eluting with hexane/ethyl acetate (4/1, v/v). The first chromaphore containing fractions were combined and the solvent was evaporated therefrom to provide 2.5 g of 1-(2,6-dichloro-9H-purin-9-yl)-3,5-bis(t-butyldimethylsiloxy)-2-desoxy-2,2-difluororibose. m/e=[568-(t-butyl)]=511
