title: 2'-Deoxy-3,7-dideazaguanosine and related compounds. Synthesis of 6-amino-1-(2-deoxy-beta-D-erythro-pentofuranosyl) and 1-beta-D-arabinofuranosyl-1H-pyrrolo[3,2-c]pyridin-4(5H)-one via direct glycosylation of a pyrrole precursor.
abstract: The synthesis of two new analogs of 2'-deoxyguanosine, 6-amino-1-(2-deoxy-beta-D-erythro-pentofuranosyl)-1H-pyrrolo[3,2-c] pyridin-4(5H)-one (8) and 6-amino-1-beta-D-arabinofuranosyl-1H-pyrrolo[3,2-c]-pyridin-4(5H)-one (13) has been accomplished by glycosylation of the sodium salt of ethyl 2-cyanomethyl-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylate (4c) using 1-chloro-2-deoxy-3,5-di-O-p-toluoyl-alpha-D-erythro-pentofuranose( 5) and 1-chloro-2,3,5-tri-O-benzyl-alpha-D-arabinofuranose (9), respectively. The resulting blocked nucleosides, ethyl 2-cyanomethyl-1-(2-deoxy-3,5-di-O-p-toluoyl-beta-D-erythro- pentofuranosyl)-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylate (6) and ethyl 2-cyanomethyl-1-(2,3,5-tri-O-benzyl-beta-D-arabinofuranosyl)- 1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylate, were ring closed with hydrazine to form 5-amino-6-hydrazino-1-(2-deoxy-beta-D-erythro-pentofuranosyl)-1H- pyrrolo[3,2-c]-pyridin-4(5H)-one (7) and 5,6-diamino-1-(2,3,5-tri-O-benzyl-beta-D-arabinofuranosyl)-1H- pyrrolo[3,2-c]pyridin-4(5H)-one (11), respectively. Treatment of 7 with Raney nickel provided the 2'-deoxyguanosine analog 8 while reaction of 11 with Raney nickel followed by palladium hydroxide/cyclohexene treatment gave the 2'-deoxyguanosine analog 13. The anomeric configuration of 8 was assigned as beta by proton NMR, while that of 13 was confirmed as beta by single-crystal X-ray analysis of the deblocked precursor ethyl 2-cyanomethyl-1-beta-D-arabinofuranosyl-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylate (10a).
