Substitution of the ribose moiety of various nucleosides and nucleotides with the (N)-methanocarba ring system increases the potency and selectivity as ligands at certain subtypes of adenosine and P2 receptors. We have prepared a key intermediate in the synthesis of these derivatives, ethyl (1S,2R,3S,4S,5S)-2,3-O-(isopropylidene)-4-hydroxybicyclo[3.1.0] hexane-carboxylate (15), starting from L-ribose (8) as a readily available, enantiopure building block. L-ribose was converted to the corresponding 5′-iodo derivative (9), which was cleaved reductively with Zn. Improvements were made in subsequent steps corresponding to a published route to biologically important (N)-methanocarba 5′-uronamido nucleosides, and new steps were added to prepare related 5′-nucleotides.

P2X receptor activation protects in heart failure models. MRS2339 3, a 2-chloro-AMP derivative containing a (N)-methanocarba (bicyclo[3.1.0]hexane) system, activates this cardioprotective channel. Michaelis-Arbuzov and Wittig reactions provided phosphonate analogues of 3, expected to be stable in vivo due to the C-P bond. After chronic administration via a mini-osmotic pump (Alzet), some analogues significantly increased intact heart contractile function in calsequestrin-overexpressing mice (genetic model of heart failure) compared to vehicle-infused mice (all inactive at the vasodilatory P2Y1 receptor). Two phosphonates,(1′S,2′R,3′S,4′R,5′S)- 4′-(6-amino-2-chloropurin-9-yl)-2′,3′-(dihydroxy) -1′-(phosphonomethylene)-bicyclo[3.1.0]hexane, 4 (MRS2775), and its homologue 9 (MRS2935), both 5′-saturated, containing a 2-Cl substitution, improved echocardiography-derived fractional shortening (20.25% and 19.26%, respectively, versus 13.78% in controls), while unsaturated 5′-extended phosphonates, all 2-H analogues, and a CH3-phosphonate were inactive. Thus, chronic administration of nucleotidase-resistant phosphonates conferred a beneficial effect, likely via cardiac P2X receptor activation. Thus, we have greatly expanded the range of carbocyclic nucleotide analogues that represent potential candidates for the treatment of heart failure.

Preference for the Northern (N) ring conformation of the ribose moiety of nucleotide 5′-triphosphate agonists at P2Y1, P2Y2, P2Y4, and P2Y11 receptors, but not P2Y6 receptors, was established using a
