Reaction Steps

A 50 L reactor was charged with 2.8 kg (7.03 mol) of 3-((2R,4S,5R)-4-hydroxy-5-(hydroxymethyl)-tetrahydrofuran-2-yl)-6-(4-pentylphenyl)furo[2,3-d]pyrimidin-2(3H)-one, 2.8 kg (35.4 mol) of pyridine and 22.4 kg of dichloromethane. The mixture was stirred and to it was added 2.86 kg (8.44 mol) 4,4′-dimethoxyltritylchloride (DMT-Cl) in 14.9 kg dichloromethane at room temperature (rt). After addition, the mixture was stirred for 0.5 h at rt. The mixture was filtered and the filtrate was washed with brine. The filtrate contained the desired product which was used directly in the next step.
