- Synthesis of 2′-O,4′-C-alkylene-bridged ribonucleosides and their evaluation as inhibitors of HCV NS5B polymerase
-
The synthesis of 2′-O,4′-C-methylene-bridged bicyclic guanine ribonucleosides bearing 2′-C-methyl or 5′-C-methyl modifications is described. Key to the successful installation of the methyl functionality in both cases was the use of a one-pot oxidation-Grignard procedure to avoid formation of the respective unreactive hydrates prior to alkylation. The 2′-C-methyl- and 5′-C-methyl-modified bicyclic guanosines were evaluated, along with the known uracil-, cytosine-, adenine-, guanine-LNA and guanine-ENA nucleosides, as potential antiviral agents and found to be inactive in the hepatitis C virus (HCV) cell-based replicon assay. Examination of the corresponding nucleoside triphosphates, however, against the purified HCV NS5B polymerase indicated that LNA-G and 2′-C-methyl-LNA-G are potent inhibitors of both 1b wild type and S282T mutant enzymes in vitro. Activity was further demonstrated for the LNA-G-triphosphate against HCV NS5B polymerase genotypes 1a, 2a, 3a and 4a. A phosphorylation by-pass prodrug strategy may be required to promote anti-HCV activity in the replicon assay.

- A simplified and efficient route to 2′-O, 4′-C-methylene-linked bicyclic ribonucleosides (locked nucleic acid)
-
A novel efficient method for the synthesis of locked nucleic acid (LNA) monomers is described. The LNA 5′,3′-diols containing thymine, 4-N-acetyl- and 4-N-benzoylcytosine, 6-N-benzoyladenine, and 2-N-isobutyrylguanine as nucleobases were prepared via convergent syntheses. The method is based on the use of the common sugar intermediate 1,2-di-O-acetyl-3-O-benzyl-4-C-methanesulfonoxymethyl- 5-O-methanesulfonyl-D-erythro-pentofuranose (8) that easily can be prepared from D-glucose in multigram scale. Four different nucleobases were stereoselectively coupled to 8 using a modified Vorbrueggen procedure to give the corresponding 4′-C-branched nucleoside derivatives. Subsequent ring closing furnished the protected LNA nucleosides. The 5′-O-mesyl groups were efficiently displaced by nucleophilic substitution using sodium benzoate. Saponification of the 5′-benzoates followed by catalytic removal of the 3′-O-benzyl groups afforded the free LNA diols. The exocyclic amino groups of adenosine and cytidine were selectively acylated to give 4-N-acetyl- or 4-N-benzoyl-LNA-C and 6-N-benzoyl-LNA-A. The isobutyryl group of guanine was retained during the preparation of 2-N-isobutyryl-LNA-G. The LNA-T diol and base-protected LNA diols can be directly converted into LNA-phosphoramidites for automated chemical synthesis of LNA containing oligonucleotides.
