Syntheses of 3'-O-α-D-glucopyranosyl-1-β-D-ribofuranosidoimidazole 2',3',4'-trisphosphate (7) and 3'-O-α-D-glucopyranosyl-9-β-D-ribofuranosidopurine 2',3',4'-trisphosphate (8), two analogues of the superpotent 1D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor agonist adenophostin A (2), are described. 5-O-Benzyl-1,2-O-isopropylidene-α-D-ribofuranose was prepared by an improved route from 1,2-O-isopropylidene-α-D-xylofuranose and was coupled with 3,4-di-O-acetyl-2,6-di-O-benzyl-D-glucopyranosyl dimethyl phosphite to give 3',4'-di-O-acetyl-2',5,6'-tri-O-benzyl-3-O-α-D-glucopyranosyl-1,2-O-isopropy lidene-α-D-ribofuranose. Removal of the isopropylidene acetal and subsequent acetylation gave the central disaccharide 1,2,3',4'-tetra-O-acetyl-2',5,6'-tri-O-benzyl-3-O-α-D-glucopyranosyl-D-ribof uranose. Vorbruggen condensation with activated imidazole or purine gave the required β-substituted derivatives which were further elaborated to 7 and 8, respectively. Radioligand binding assays to hepatic InsP3 receptors and functional assays of Ca2+ release from permeabilized hepatocytes gave a rank order of potency of the ligands 2 ? 8 > 7 ? Ins(1,4,5)P3 indicating that the N6-amino group of 2 is of little importance for activity and that a minimum of a two-fused-ring nucleobase is required for activity to exceed that of Ins(1,4,5)P3. The role of the adenine base in the activity of the adenophostins is discussed. This general method should facilitate ready access to nucleobase-modified adenophostin analogues for SAR studies.
High 1,3-trans stereoselectivity in nucleophilic substitution at the anomeric position and β-fragmentation of the primary alkoxyl radical in 3-amino-3-deoxy-ribofuranose derivatives: Application to the synthesis of 2- epi -(-)-jaspine B

The high inverse stereoselectivity in the nucleophilic substitution at the anomeric position of 3-amino-3-deoxy-ribofuranose derivatives is reported. This unprecedented stereoselectivity is explained in terms of preferential nucleophilic attack on the "inside face" of the respective five-membered ring oxocarbenium ion that orients pseudoequatorially to the benzylamine group placed at the C-3 position. In addition, an unusual β-fragmentation of a primary alkoxyl radical generated from its corresponding N-phthalimide derivative was achieved, and thus taking advantages of both reactions, the total synthesis of 2-epi-(-)-jaspine B was completed.
Convergent synthesis of adenophostin A analogues via a base replacement strategy

, p. 219 - 220 (2007/10/03)
The first totally synthetic base-modified analogues of the natural product and potent D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor agonist adenophostin A were efficiently synthesised from D-xylose and D-glucose using methodology employing base and surrogate base addition to a common disaccharide intermediate.
