Trimethylsilyl triflate → 1-[(2S,4R,5R)-4-acetoxy-5-(5-amino-2,7-dioxo-6H-thiazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidin-3-yl)tetrahydrofuran-2-yl]propyl benzoate

Reaction Steps

To a suspension of 5-amino-3,6-dihydrothiazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidine-2,7-dione (2.82 g, 16.8 mmol) in ACN (100 mL) was added BSA (10.4 mL, 42 mmol). The resulting reaction mixture was then stirred at 70° C. under argon for 0.5 hour to form a clear solution. After the solution was cooled to room temperature, 1-[(2S,4R)-4,5-diacetoxytetrahydrofuran-2-yl]propyl benzoate (compound 26b, 4.9 g, 14.0 mmol) and TMSOTf (4.7 mL, 2.3 21 mmol) were added in sequence. After being heated with stirring at 70° C. for 14 hours, the solvent was removed in vacuo. The residue was partitioned between EtOAc and saturated NaHCO3 solution (30 mL). The organic layer was separated and the aqueous phase was extracted with EtOAc (30 mL) twice. The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (eluting with 1:200 methanol in DCM) to afford 5.27 g crude product of 1-[(2S,4R,5R)-4-acetoxy-5-(5-amino-2,7-dioxo-6H-thiazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidin-3-yl)tetrahydrofuran-2-yl]propyl benzoate (compound 26c) as a light yellow solid. MS obsd. (ESI+) [(M+H)+]: 475.
