A synthesis of novel 3′-deoxy analogs of the anti-HBV agent entecavir (BMS-200475) was devised using regioselective ring opening of suitable cyclopentene epoxides as the key step. This versatile approach afforded access to an enantiomeric pair of carbocyclic nucleosides from a single chiral intermediate.
Synthesis of (R)-4-Hydroxy-2-benzyloxymethylcyclopent-2-en-1-one from D-Glucose via Palladium(0)-catalysed Rearrangement of a Vinylic Epoxide Intermediate

The transformation of D-glucose into (R)-4-hydroxy-2-benzyloxymethylcyclopent-2-en-1-one (3), a potential chiral synthon for the antibiotic (-)-pentenomycin I (4), has been achieved via the intramolecular aldolisation-dehydration of the 2-hydroxy-4-oxo-aldehyde (9) which was obtained by two different routes, one of them involving palladium(0)-catalysed rearrangement of a vinylic epoxide intermediate.
