Abstract
Treatment of -uridine (3) with a-acetoxyisobutyryl chloride in acetonitrile gave, after deprotection, a mixture of four products: 5-(2-chloro-2-deoxy-B“D-arabinofuranosyljuracil (10a), its 3’-chloro xylo isomer (11a), 2l-chloro-2'-deoxy--uridine (9a) and 4,2’-anhydro--uridine (8a). Each component was isolated by column chromatography. Compound 9 was converted to the known 1,3-dimethyl derivative 2 by treatment with DMF-dimethylacetal. Treatment of 10 and 1_1 with NaOMe/MeOH afforded the same 4,2’-anhydro-C-nucleoside 8. The 1,3-dimethyl analogues of TO and 11, however, were converted to 2‘,3’-anhydro-l,3-dimethyl-i(j-uridine (13) upon base treatment. The epoxide 13 was also prepared in good yield by treatment of 10 and 11_ with DMF-dimethyl acetal.
