In Scheme 1, above, isopropylideneadenosine 1 is used to synthesize toluenesulfonyl isopropylideneadenosine, 2 (2′,3′-O-isopropylidene-5′-O-toluene-p-sulfonyl adenosine). An anhydrous pyridine solution of commercially available 2′,3′-isopropylideneadenosine 1 is shaken with p-toluenesulfonyl chloride. In a separate reaction, the synthon 4-acetylsulfanyl-piperidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester 4 was synthesized using the method of Plettenburg in which potassium thioacetate and 4-bromo-piperidine 3 are heated in DMF. According to modified procedures based on an existing protocol (Isakovic et al., Bioorg. & Med. Chem. Lett. (2009) 19: 2742-2746), synthon 4 is reacted with sodium methoxide to form the thiol, followed by the reaction with 2 to give 4-[6-(6-Amino-purin-9-yl)-2,2-dimethyl-tetrahydro-furo[3,4-d][1,3]dioxol-4-ylmethylsulfanyl]-piperidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester 5. Under the TFA/DCM condition, cleavage of the BOC protection group and subsequent reaction of 6 with (2-bromo-ethyl)-carbamic acid tert-butyl ester provides intermediate 7. The deprotection of 7 yields 8, which contains an amino group used to link 8 to the pterin moiety.
