A series of pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidone nucleosides were synthesized and evaluated for their ability to enhance Type 2 cytokines and to suppress Type 1 cytokines in human T cells activated in vitro. Compounds 16b, 16c, 16d, 18c, and 19b induced substantial enhancement of IL-4 (a Type 2 cytokine) levels while three compounds (16b, 16c, and 16f) showed significant suppression of IFNγ (a Type 1 cytokine) levels. The results revealed a strict structural requirement for the nucleoside-mediated enhancement of IL- 4. Modifications of the ribofuranose moiety of the nucleosides either abolished or dramatically reduced the activity. Both the 5'-hydroxy and 5- carboxamidine are crucial for the activity. Of the few nucleoside analogues that demonstrated enhancement on Type 2 cytokine production, 7-(β-D- ribofuranosyl)pyrrolo[2,3d]-4-pyrimidone-5-carboxamidine (16c) showed a dramatic enhancement (> 200%) of IL-4 levels and a significant enhancement (36%) of IL-5 levels. Moreover, this compound showed substantial suppression of the Type 1 cytokines, IFNγ (42%), IL-2 (54%), and TNFα (55%). Similarly, compound 16b showed a substantial enhancement of IL-4 (46%) and suppression of IL-2 (35%), IFNγ (30%), and TNFα (26%). To our knowledge, these are the first nucleoside analogues that induce a Type 2 cytokine bias in T cells. The cytokine modulation property of 16c and 16b merits the therapeutic evaluation of these compounds in treating diseases in which immunopathology is associated with polarized Type 1 cytokine responses.

A practical route towards the synthesis of 1,2,3-tri-O-acetyl-5-deoxy-D-ribofuranose from D-ribose is described. The key steps include deoxygenation of methyl 2,3-O-isopropylidene-5-O-sulfonyloxy-β-D-ribofuranoside by reductive displacement employing hydride reagents. Subsequent total hydrolysis followed by acetylation led to the title compound in 56% overall yield from D-ribose. The sequence is simple, inexpensive, high yielding and clearly suitable for multi-gram preparations.

Paragraph 0049; 0050; 0051, (2019/03/06)
The invention discloses a preparation method of a high-purity capecitabine key intermediate. The preparation method comprises the following steps: taking D-ribose as an initial raw material, performing hydroxyl protection, 5-site tosylation, reduction, deprotection and acetylation to obtain high-purity 1,2,3-O-triacetyl-5-deoxo-D-ribose, wherein the 5-site tosylation reaction is carried out in anorganic solvent 1 by adopting inorganic base 1.

5-(2-Oxopropylideneamino)-6-d-ribitylaminouracil (5-OP-RU) is a natural product formed during bacterial synthesis of vitamin B2. It potently activates mucosal associated invariant T (MAIT) cells and has immunomodulatory, inflammatory, and anticancer properties. This highly polar and unstable compound forms a remarkably stable Schiff base with a lysine residue in major histocompatibility complex class I–related protein (MR1) expressed in antigen-presenting cells. Inspired by the importance of the ribityl moiety of 5-OP-RU for binding to both MR1 and the T cell receptor (TCR) on MAIT cells, each OH was removed in silico. DFT calculations and MD simulations revealed a very stable hydrogen bond between the C3′?OH and uracil N1H, which profoundly restricts flexibility and positioning of each ribityl-OH, potentially impacting their interactions with MR1 and TCR. By using deoxygenation strategies and kinetically controlled imine formation, four monodeoxyribityl and four monohydroxyalkyl analogues of 5-OP-RU were synthesised as new tools for probing T cell activation mechanisms.

Simplifying access to synthetic nucleosides is of interest due to their widespread use as biochemical or anticancer and antiviral agents. Herein, a direct stereoselective method to access an expansive range of both natural and synthetic nucleosides up to a gram scale, through direct glycosylation of nucleobases with 5-O-tritylribose and other C5-modified ribose derivatives, is discussed in detail. The reaction proceeds through nucleophilic epoxide ring opening of an in situ formed 1,2-anhydrosugar (termed “anhydrose”) under modified Mitsunobu reaction conditions. The scope of the reaction in the synthesis of diverse nucleosides and other 1-substituted riboside derivatives is described. In addition, a mechanistic insight into the formation of this key glycosyl donor intermediate is provided.

Diethylene glycol dimethyl ether, diglyme, and 1,2-bis(2-methoxyethoxy)ethane, triglyme, are found to be suitable and safe alternate solvents to DMSO for the reduction of methanesulfonate in sodium borohydride. Addition of anhydrous lithium chloride led to the complete reduction of methanesulfonate esters to the corresponding alkanes in the presence of sodium borohydride in these solvents (diglyme and triglyme). This protocol is useful in the preparation of 1,2,3-triacetyl-5-deoxy-d-ribofuranoside, 7, a key intermediate of Capecitabine, 1, on the commercial scale.
