Reaction Steps

2-(S)-benzoyloxymethyl-4-(S)—(N-benzoylcytosin-1-yl)-1,3-oxathiolane (1.0 g, 0.0022 mol) was dissolved in a methanolic ammonia (approximately 2M) solution (20 mL). The initial slurry was stirred overnight. After overnight stirring, the resulting clear solution was evaporated to dryness and slurried in acetone (20 mL). This yielded off-white powdery solid which was filtered and washed with acetone (2×10 mL), and dried to yield the product. 0.47 g (88%).
