Reaction Steps

A flask was charged with 2-(((3aR,4S,6R,6aS)-6-((5-amino-6-chloro-2-(propylthio)pyrimidin-4-yl)amino)-2,2-dimethyltetrahydro-4H-cyclopenta[d][1,3]dioxol-4-yl)oxy)ethan-1-ol (50 g), acetic acid (265 mL) and water (50 mL). The mixture was stirred and cooled to 0-5° C. followed by addition of aqueous sodium nitrite solution (8.65 g in 50 mL) over a period of about 1 hour. The mixture was stirred at the same temperature for about 2 hours followed by addition of ethyl acetate (250 mL) and water (250 mL). The mixture was further stirred at room temperature for about 45 minutes at which point water (250 mL) was added. The mixture was stirred and layers were separated, aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate (250 mL). Total organic layer was separated and washed with aqueous potassium carbonate solution (20%, 2×250 mL). The organic layer (˜500 mL) was used for subsequent step.
