Article Title: | Synthesis of the pyrido[4,3-d]pyrimidine congeners of inosine and of adenosine - A new class of 6:6 bicyclic C-ribofuranosides |
Abstract: | The synthesis of the pyrido[4,3-d]pyrimidine congeners (7 and 8) of inosine and adenosine from the known precursor 3-dimethylamino-2-(2,3-O-isopropylidene-5-O-trityl-D-ribofuranosyl)acrylonitrile (10) is described. The synthetic sequence involves a modified Thorpe-Ziegler annulation to a 4-amino-3-cyanotetrahydropyridine derivative (22) followed by aromatization to an alpha, beta mixture of the desired 5-ribosyl-4-amino-3-cyanopyridine intermediates (25 and 26). Further annulation to the pyrido[4,3-d]pyrimidine ring system and simultaneous detritylation and deisopropylidenation completes the synthesis. |
