Abstract
(1R*,4R*,7S*)-7-Aminobicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-ene-2,2-dimethanol (15) was prepared in four easy steps from bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-ene-2,2-dimethanol (10). Reaction of amine 15 with ethyl N-((E)-3-ethoxymethacryloyl)carbamate afforded thymine derivatives 17a. The amine 15 was used to construct 6-chloro-9H-purine derivative 19a, 2-amino-6-chloro-9H-purine derivative 22a. Ammonolysis of 19a led to the adenine derivative 20a. Treatment of 22a with trifluoroacetic acid afforded guanine nucleoside 23a. (1R*,4R*,7S*)-7-[6-(Cyclopropylamino)-9H-purin-9-yl]bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-ene-2,2-dimethanol (21a) and (1R*,4R*,7S*)-7-[2-amino-6-(cyclopropylamino)-9H-purin-9-yl]bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-ene-2,2-dimethanol (24a) were prepared by aminolysis of 19a and 22a. Saturated nucleosides 17b, 20b, 21b, 23b, 24b were obtained by hydrogenation on palladium catalyst.
