A new, simplified commercial process for the preparation of nucleosidic phosphoramidites, key raw materials for the automated solid-supported synthesis of oligonucleotide-based drugs, was developed. Phosphitylation of a variety of protected nucleosidic derivatives (1-4) with a small excess of 2-cyanoethyl-N,N,N′,N′-tetraisopropyl phosphoramidite (5, bis-reagent) and pyridinium trifluoroacetate (Py·TFA) as the activator in an appropriate solvent at room temperature formed 75-96% of desired nucleosidic phosphoramidite products in less than 2 h. An efficient nonaqueous work-up has been developed to further streamline the isolation of moisture-sensitive P(III) nucleosidic compounds. The key finding is the use of Py·TFA, which is effective, inexpensive, stable, less acidic (pKa 5.2) than 1H-tetrazole, nontoxic, safe, and highly soluble in organic solvents. The reaction mechanism for phosphitylation with Py TFA as an activator has also been studied. An improved, robust, and versatile process for the preparation of nucleotide phosphoramidites under very concentrated reaction conditions was developed to support commercial manufacture of oligonucleotide-based drugs.
Process for the preparation of 2'-O-alkyl purine phosphoramidites

2'-O-alkylated guanosine, uridine, cytidine, and 2,6-diaminopurine 3'-O-phosphoramidites are prepared by alkylating nucleoside precursors, adding suitable blocking groups and phosphitylating. Alkylation is effected on 2,6-diamino-9-(β-D-ribofuranosyl)purine followed by deamination to prepare guanosine 2'-O-alkylated 3'-O-phosphormidites. Alkylation is effected on a dialkyl stannylene derivative of uridine to prepare uridine 2'-O-alkylated 3'-O-phosphormidites. Alkylation is effected directly on cytidine to prepare cytidine 2'-O-alkylated 3'-O-phosphormidites. Alkylation is effected directly on 2,6-diaminopurine to prepare 2,6-diaminopurine 2'-O-alkylated 3'-O-phosphormidites.
