Abstract
A convenient synthetic method for preparing 3-deazapurine nucleosides (3-deazainosine, 3-deazaadenosine, and 3-deazaguanosine) from inosine via a 5-ethynyl-1-β-D-ribofuranosylimidazole-4-carboxamide (EICAR) derivative, which is a key intermediate, is described. A large-scale synthesis of an EICAR derivative starting from inosine was achieved in six steps via dinitrophenylation at the N1 position followed by ring opening, iodination of the resulting 5-amino group, and a palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction. The resulting EICAR derivative was then converted into 3-deazainosine, 3-deazaadenosine, and 3-deazaguanosine. This route enabled us to synthesize 3-deazapurine nucleosides conveniently in good yields. © 2021 Wiley Periodicals LLC.
