Highly Diastereoselective Synthesis of (2'S)-[2'-2H]-2'-Deoxyribonucleosides from the Corresponding Ribonucleosides

Abstract
The four (2′S)-[2′-2H]-2′-deoxynucleosides (>90 atom % 2H), were synthesized from the corresponding ribonucleosides involving six steps of reactions, i.e., oxidation of their 2′-hydroxyl group, stereoselective reductive deuteration of the resulting 2′-ketonucleoside intermediates with NaB2H4 in EtOH-H2O or EtOH, triflation, bromination with LiBr, highly stereoselective Bu3SnH-Et3B reduction of the resulting bromide, and, finally, unmasking.
