Abstract

A practical synthetic route to 7-formamidino-7-deazaguanosine (archaeosine), a hypermodified nucleoside observed in archaeal tRNA, has been developed, which involves the addition of hydroxylamine to the cyano group of 7-cyano-7-deazaguanosine (preQ0-nucleoside) and a subsequent Pd-catalyzed hydrogenation. PreQ0-nucleoside was obtained from an optimized β-selective glycosylation developed by Hocek et al. The corresponding archaeosine base was subsequently synthesized in high yield from its precursor 7-cyano-7-deazaguanine (preQ0).
