Abstract
The syntheses of 6-(4) and 7-p-chlorphenyl-1-(2,3,5-tri-O-benzoyl-β-D-ribofuranosyl)-lumazine (6), was well as the debenzoylation to the corresponding free nucleosides 5 and 7, were improved. Thiation of 4 and 6 by P4S10 led in excellent yields to 4-thiolumazine nucleosides (8, 10) which could be deblocked to 9 and 11 and converted on treatment with ammonia into the isopterin-N-1- ribofuranosides 13 and 14. 2,2′-Anhydro-nucleoside formation worked well with 5 and 7 respectively to give 15 and 16, which formed on acid hydrolysis the 6- and 7-substituted 1-β-D-arabinofuranosyl-lumazines 18 and 19. The new nucleosides have been characterized by UV and 1H-NMR spectra.
