Synthesis of oligoribonucleotides with phosphonate-modified linkages

Solid phase synthesis of phosphonate-modified oligoribonucleotides using 2′-O-benzoyloxymethoxymethyl protected monomers is presented in both 3′→5′ and 5′→3′ directions. Hybridisation properties and enzymatic stability of oligoribonucleotides modified by regioisomeric 3′- and 5′-phosphonate linkages are evaluated. The introduction of the 5′-phosphonate units resulted in moderate destabilisation of the RNA/RNA duplexes (ΔTm -1.8 °C/mod.), whereas the introduction of the 3′-phosphonate units resulted in considerable destabilisation of the duplexes (ΔTm -5.7 °C/mod.). Molecular dynamics simulations have been used to explain this behaviour. Both types of phosphonate linkages exhibited remarkable resistance in the presence of ribonuclease A, phosphodiesterase I and phosphodiesterase II.

Synthesis of 1'%,2',3',4'%,5',5"-(2)H6-β-D-ribonucleosides and 1'%,2',2",3',4'%,5',5"-(2)H7-β-D-2'-deoxyribonucleosides for Selective Suppression of Proton Resonances in Partially-deuterated Oligo-DNA, Oligo-RNA and in 2,5A core ((1)H-NMR window)

Raney nickel-(2)H2O exchange reaction on an epimeric mixture of methyl α/β-D-ribofuranoside 1 produced methyl 1%,2,3,4%,5,5'-(2)H6-α/β-D-ribofuranoside 2 ( >97 atom percent (2)H at C2, C3, C5/5'; ca. 85 atom percent (2)H at C4(C4%); ca. 20 atom percent (2)H at C1(C1%)) which was obtained in 60 - 80percent yield along with epimeric xylo and arabino by-products.Toluoylation of the crude 2 in dry pyridine and a careful separation on a column of silica gel gave pure 1-O-methyl-2,3,5-tri-O-(4-toluoyl)-α/β-D-1%,2,3,4%,5,5'-(2)H6-ribofuranoside 4 (48percent).Conversion of 4 to1-O-acetyl-2,3,5-tri-O-toluoyl-α/β-D-1%,2,3,4%,5,5'-(2)H6-ribofuranoside 6 (82percent) provided the crucial building block for the synthesis of deuterionucleosides for RNA or DNA synthesis.Compound 6 was then condensed with silyated uracil, N4-benzoylcytosine, N6-benzoyladenine, N2-acetyl-O6-diphenylcarbamoylguanine and thymine in anhydrous solvent using trimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate to give the corresponding isomerically pure 1'%,2',3',4'%,5',5"-(2)H6-ribonucleoside derivatives 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 in 75, 85, 60, 73 and 91percent yields, respectively. 1'%,2',3',4'%,5',5"-(2)H6-ribonucleosides 13-16 were converted in high yields to the corresponding 1'%,2',2",3',4'%,5',5"-(2)H7-2'-deoxynucleosides 41-44 in the following manner: 3',5'-O-(1,1,3,3-tetraisopropyldisiloxane-1,3-diyl (TPDS)-1'%,2',3',4'%,5',5"-(2)H6-nucleosides 29-32 were converted to the corresponding 2'-O-phenoxythiocarbonyl derivatives 33-36, which were deoxygenated by tri-n-butyltin deuteride to give 1'%,2',2",3',4'%,5',5"-(2)H7-2'-deoxynucleosides 37-40 and subsequently deprotected to give 41-44.Pure 1'%,2',3',4'%,5',5"-(2)H6-ribonucleoside derivatives 12-15, 1'%,2',2",3',4'%,5',5"-(2)H7-2'-deoxynucleoside blocks 41-44 and their natural-abundance counterparts were then used to assemble partially deuterated ribonucleotide-dimers (* indicates deuterated moiety): UpA* 77, CpG* 78, ApU* 79, GpC* 80, partially deuterated 2'-deoxyribonucleotide-dimers d(TpA*) 93, d(CpG*) 94, d(ApT*) 95, d(GpC*) 96 and partially deuterated 2,5A core (A*2'p5'A2'p5'A*) (109).These nine partially deuterated oligonucleotides were subsequently compared with their corresponding natural-abundance counterparts by 500 MHz (1)H-NMR spectroscopy to evaluate the actual NMR simplifications achieved in the non-deuterated part ((1)H-NMR window) as a result of specific deuterium incorporation.Detailed 1D (1)H-NMR (500 MHz), 2D correlation spectra (DQF-COSY and TOCSY), T1 measurements for (1)H-, (13)C- and INEPT (13)C-NMR spectra have been presented and discussed to assess the utility of stereospecific deuterium incorporation to create the (1)H- or (13)C-NMR window.
